What are you specifically looking for in the DIY? how and where to route stuff? Every installation will be slightly different.
I dont think this is really a DIY type thing.
You first need to understand fully how the system works

Then you have to make sure you route cabling and fittings done properly.
If you do not understand fully everything a DIY job can land you stranded possibly or it can be also very dangerous situation if something fails while you are driving down a freeway.

Yes I am doing the 3p so no height sensors for now so that part can be skipped. I have checked out your build thread to get an idea. I'm pretty handy with the idea for the most part and have done suspension work many times before. I have another vehicle to use so I'm in no rush to knock the job out in a small time frame.
My main concern is Routing the air lines outside of the car or through the interior pulling up panels..I plan on using the #becausebags universal hanging mount to hang the tank and dual compressors and management.

You will need that if you want to do hanging mount. Without this tool and knowledge how to do so, forget about trying to hang it
Here is one I have personally for reference http://ebay.to/2iC6Pri
Have you installed full sound systems in the past? If you have then you can use that analogy on how the wiring and air lines will work. You can consider every air bag as a speaker, the airlines as speaker wire. the Amplifier is the air management ecu and compressors.
If you have then the wiring and routing of airline will be simplified.
You can check out this video of me running airlines on my friends ISF I did. Pretty much same idea applies for 3IS chassis

Have you used Rivnut tool and nutserts before?
