Havent done this swap exactly but i have done lots of wiring. Mark every connector so you know where it belongs. Be extra careful around bulkheads and hinge points that can rub or pinch, use grommets through firewalls. If you have any areas where its hard to fish wires through you can feed scrap wire/string from opposite side, tie off the new wires and gently pull the harness through. Check all connectors are clean before you begin.
