Haha it's chilly and I only have like 2 hrs tops to work on the car before it's dark. I mean it's not super cold either like in other places. Also I don't think I have all the correct tools for the install

Do you have a place to do it in stages? And it getting dark early really sucks. When I get home from work I have about 45 minutes before dark if I can get out of there at a decent time. In another month it will always be dark. Glad I have a garage.

You can wait and save money by taking time and doing it yourself

Spot lights help. I had to take out and remount my headlights using the flashlight app on my phone last night. Also, keeping your tools inside during the day so they're not cold when you go to use them helps too.
