Its a simple install. The instructions are easy to read, so you shouldn't have any problems. The hardest part for me was getting the wire off/on the clips under the tank.

I don't have the skull, but don't think the flush mount would be much different. Literally, picking the wires out of the existing connector was the hardest part - and that's pretty easy. Take your time and post back if you have questions once you get into it.
