Jerry;
I just finished installing inserts in just about every orifice in my 205's (not by choice) and I can offer two bits of advice beyond what everyone else had to say. First, use Heli-coil brand inserts. The ones you buy at the local auto parts convenience stores are cheap and don't install well. The Heli-coil's are more expensive but worth the money. Second, when drilling out the old threads don't start with the drill bit in the kit. Get out your bit register and start with a smaller size, then work up to the right size. When using a hand-held drill it's more than easy to drill the hole at the wrong angle, especially on small holes. Take your time and have fun!
