Wheel hub assemblies - www.gmpartsdiect.com or www.rockauto.com. Two cheapest places to GM parts.
 
Window regulator is not all that hard to replace. You can get one from the above sites. Common repair, need to get door panel off.
 
Cruise Control switch isn't too bad either (from waht i read).
 
As far as engine modifications, the 98 Intrigue shares a bunch of parts with the late 90's Regal and Grand Prix. You may want to do a search on these cars to see what modifications are available.
 
Can't help on the audio mods.

Window Regulator by fasstln

My window regulator (passenger rear) died a few weeks ago. I priced a new one (and they all came with the regulator and the motor) from the local autopart stores and they were all around $125.
I removed the door panel (10 plastic tab things and 3-4 screws) which wasn't too bad. Then you have to remove the water sealing plastic from the metal door (just pull). After that you start removing about 3 screws on the motor, 4 screws on the metal track, and 2 screws that hold the glass window to the regulator. Pull all of that stuff out and then put the new one in. Loosely bolt the new regulator in and once everything seems lined-up, tighten the bolts down. Now try the window to ensure it works. My was catching on some of the loose wiring so I had to reposition the wire lumes so they wouldn't interfere with the window's movement. I bought new plastic tab things for the door panel and reinstalled everything. Seems to work like a champ.
I was very happy with how easy everything was. The only hiccup that some people might have is with removing the door panel. If you don't have a torx bit set, then you won't be able to remove some of the screws. Otherwise the installation only need a very basic ratchet set.

Thanks fasstln! You should put these directions as a "guide" to replace the window regulator. This way anyone can do a search and get to your directions.
