Overall, other than the wiring, it shouldn't be very hard. You're just unbolting one door and replacing it with another. If you have a physical key lock, you would need to re-ring the lock to work with your key ... or get a key from the donor. The keyless should still work.

Hi hi hello howdy
I've seen the hatches go for as low as $75, great deal.
Yup, wiring is not too bad, but the good news ? If you talk to the right shop, they CAN wire up a speed switch of some kind to your system. You could choose a speed you wanted it to come up at, like the 45mph on my 1.8T, and they could connect to your speedometer for that, or any other ways, but also you could have a switch on the dash, easy to do
I say go for it
