Over the last few months, i've been slowly buying new aftermarket parts from ebay and some other places and I haven't had the time, nor do I trust my skills entirely. I'm looking for someone to give me some guidance, help me install my parts, who whould be willing to work with me on a weekend or something who has plenty of experience and skills (and tools if required).

I thought about just taking it to a shop and having them do it, but: A) they hella expensive, and B) I really want to learn how to do it myself. So i'm really looking for a mentor who will help me get this stuff in. I will compensate you for your time with what ever seems reasonable.

Preferably, I'm looking for someone who absolutely loves to see Celicas turned into dream machines.

So here is the parts I need help with:

-Flog light kit
-Under body LED light kit
-new car alarm w/trunk release, remote start, additional sirens, additional sensors. ( I already have an alarm but its kinda buggy and doesn't have a very far range)
-TWM short shifter
-Alfa Otto reverse HUD light kit
-need some help putting my plastic pannels back on in my trunk
-Bright White headlamps (going to use the old lamps in the fog lights)
-Need help cleaning the engine (bought some engine cleaner)
-250amp audio pipe 0 guage fuse holder (and maybe rewire the 4000watt sub with 0 guage)
-rerun the RCA's for the amp (1 channel is gone and the wire got crushed)
-swap out the blinker lights with some clear ones (not sure where to get those)
-need to re-mount my fuse box (as i had to move it to make room for the CAI)
-possibly HID projector installation (if i buy them in time)


The cheapest shop I could find that would do all of that $290, so i'm thinking somewhere between $100-150 for a days worth of work seems reasonable (plus i'll treat a meal).

I live in West Covina, but i'll drive to your place (assuming you have a garage and some tools, as I have no garage, just covered parking, and very minimal tools, like a metric wrench set and some other stuff). Also, I'm not sure what to do about getting the underbody light kit.... Do I need to get it jacked up to install?) So yeah, I'd be willing to drive 30 miles or so, somewhere around LA area if you have a shop/garage w/ lots of tools.

Please respond here w/ info on your experience, location, and avalibility. I'll private message you and/or AIM you. You can also reach me on AIM: kingwsk

Thanks

That stuff will take more than a day most likely. It'd probably take the good part of a day just to do a good alarm install. If you lived closer, I'd help you for free. There are a lot of good guys down there in Cali though...I bet they'll help you out at no charge.
