any help would be great!

I recently did this DIY, it is not very difficult you can do this in about two hours or less. Just make sure you follow that PDF step by step if you go out of sequence you will only delay. It seems difficult but nothing to it really. Just be patient. the hardest part is getting the rear vent out and putting it back. If you have questions just ask, I get the updates on my phone so I am able to respond in a reasonable amount of time.
