I got my kit from A-1 electric . It comes with 45lb selenoids and everything else that you need. But i cant help you much because i have not recived/put them in yet. But people i have talked to say that it is not that hard. I think the hardest thing is the body work.

I mean the acutal filling where the handles woudl go+the door lock hole. But it sounds like you have that part taking care of so i dont think it would be that hard. Just depends on what you like.

I think it would be pretty hard to add the hardware after it has been shaved. If they are nice, you would probably have better luck trading someone here for a set with handles. IF that's the route you are wanting to go.
