The more important thing is to face your home correctly for the suns solar orientation, that is the lanai should be SSE.
The garage will take care of itself

insulating garage doors, after market HD $50

under counter lights, after market HD wayyyyyy cheaper.

adding or moving electrical outlets, builder $15 PER outlet

Thanks for all the info. From reading the Gilchrist thread for some time it seems like you are a knowledgeable source of info on building.

regarding the garage doors - does HD sell a kit that is easy to install? If you do the undercounter aftermarket do you need the cabinet guy install a trim piece under the cabinets to hide the lights?
