Motor mounts on straight-six diesel engines are easy, at least on the '96-97 NA engines. Can't comment on the turbo version.

Our headlights, fortunately not the expensive HID option, were yellow and pitted after 250,000 miles. I bought a 3M kit for under $20 and polished the plastic to like-new. Interestingly, it's only the outermost layer of plastic that yellows. Once you have sanded that away, the plastic underneath is clear.

The fog light (glass) lenses were also badly pitted and one was cracked. I replaced both and covered them with X-Pel film to reduce future pitting. So far it has worked well.
