Doors: Don't know if they have one here, but on duramaxforum the user towmaster did a write up that shows you how to get your doors apart in like 5 minutes...very good DIY....it's what I used.

Steering Wheel: I just disconnected my bulbs...I had 3MM LEDS bought, but for the life of me could not fit 2 leds and 2 resistors inside those little buttons....if you figure out how to do it, let me know! And also, read ALL airbag warnings before you decide to take off your steering wheel!

I'm about to start small, by replacing the steering wheel lights with some resistorless leds..

God, I hope this works...

Hope I don't get in trouble for posting this but: http://www.duramaxforum.com/forum/how-tos-diy-write-ups/16570-door-panel-removal.html

Read that to get your doors off...you have to take them off to get your switches out.....once they are off there is a Screw holding in the door switches....it's located at the top of the switch that is facing the front of the truck...you can't miss it...after that be VERY careful and just snap it out! Also remember, the passenger side......CAKE WALK.....driver side...not so much. The driver side switch when you take it apart has 2 motherboards in it on 2 different levels and it uses clear plastic to transfer the light through 4 LEDs. So basically be cafeful, pay attention to how it's in there and good luck!

And I never heard of a resistorless LED...you'd def. need a SMALL one of those to work in those door switches....it's super tight....I had mine apart
