Gonna copy and paste one of my previous replies to a similar question last year. Hopefully that helps a bit.
Your question about ballpark cost is a bit "how long is a piece of string..?". It totally depends on your choices. Mine ended up costing me around $1k all up, but I'm in Australia and everything is bloody expensive over here.

Recently built a keezer myself so I can offer a bit of advice. I think the main reason most people shy away from kits is they tend to bundle cheap and nasty parts. Here's a list of parts you'll need and my insights to go with them:
I'm super happy with my system, the 650ss are awesome and let me use less than a metre of beer line. I also shelled out a little extra for a ball lock gas post and bulkhead to replace the gas-in barb on my gas manifold. That combined with another quick disconnect just lets me easily remove the gas bottle from the freezer and gas another keg for storage or something. Hope that helps a bit, feel free to ask any more questions.

I like these euro-style hose clamps over conventional ones. I think they look nicer and they don't damage the hose.

These too. Have a large assortment and don't mind 1 time use.
While I love cable ties, their quality is really variable and the not-so-good ones get brittle from heat and time.
Your led should last a very long time, it's the charging bits on the bike I've heard can heat up more with an led setup and cause premature failure (or so I've read). Who knows though.
That's about the same draw as the light I purchased which is here!
and the brackets to mount here
Mind taking a quick look. Anything stand out that could cause problems with my conversion? Want to make sure I've got everything together before I start this weekend.
