Playing Project M on PAL Wii with NTSC Brawl

So I finally caved and ordered an NTSC copy of Brawl, since Project M obviously doesn't work with the PAL version (I live in Germany). Now, since I don't have the game here yet, meaning I can't try out getting Project M to run on my Wii for myself just yet, I'd like to ask for a couple of suggestions before I do anything stupid. There seem to be quite a few methods to go about this and I don't quite get it.

(My Wii is hacked/softmodded, so that won't be a problem)

The easiest method, it seems, would be to use the Project M Homebrew Launcher, and admittedly, this part's already a bit confusing to me. Is it sufficient to just put the Homebrew Launcher (very first option on the "Download" page) on my SD card or do I need anything else on there?

The more important question: does the Homebrew Launcher even work on a PAL Wii? Like, is it able to circumvent the region lock (like Gecko OS does, for example) and launch my NTSC copy of the game?

I would be super grateful if someone just gave me some simple instructions on how to pull this off.

I was about to ask the same thing. Does the launcher launch the game region free like Gecko OS ?
And can you still use Gecko OS with 3.02 ?
