I ignored some of your questions last night. Sorry, it was late for me.
-Siemens or VDO are good brands.
-Switch/resistor? No. At least in this case it sounds unnecessary. And the aftermarket resistors seem to be less than desirable. On the other hand, if you're going to this much trouble you might just want to do it all so you won't have to go back in a year or two later.
-The "No Dash Removal," method sounds easier, if that's what you refer to. I cannot say it's not because I have removed the entire dash the times I have done this. I say leaving the dash in sounds easier because it obviously involves less work. What you save in time by not removing the dash you probably more than make up for due not being able to see what you are doing or straining to remove components that would otherwise be within easy reach. There is also the so-called "chainsaw" method but I will not elaborate on that.
If you follow Art B's instructions found on his website you really can't go wrong.
--Not much difference between early or late dash removal. Equal degree of difficulty, IMO.
--If you don't remove the dash you will want to remove the seats and the cluster as well as the other items you mention.
