Awesome!
With the temp rewire job you have most of it beat. I think that if you have a good 3 hours or so you can get all the work done. The work really isn't 3 hours worth but going through this the first time moving slow and steady will ensure you get the job done well. Word to the wise, if you swap the safety rollout limit switch with one of the new ones you ordered, do NOT lose the screws and/or nuts while working with it hahaha.

This will give you some info on what to expect when you mess with your Auber PID for the first time.
It takes it a bit of time on auto tune to do it's thing. Just be patient.
After the autotune, understand that you now have a NEW smoker. This means you must learn how this new smoker behaves just like any other new smoker you may have bought or encounter. Once you do a few smokes, learn some quirks, and make your tweaks you will be unstoppable. Again this is just the natural progression a person will go through with a new smoker so approach your new setup with this expecation to avoid being discouraged if it isn't 100% perfect the first time you use it. I would stick to something simple on your first real smoke like a whole chicken or something like that.
