The syntax is roughly the same which is fine but what I'm finding harder 
is identifying the appropriate selectors based on the output of the 
inspector is harder.

I've gotten most of everything I wanted fixed except for the height of 
the register tabs. The inspector so far isn't showing me anything 
helpful to tweak that would let me reduce their height.
