I would just run autobuild with the experimental data and hl coeffs as "data" and the high resolution data as "hires" data and your current model and sequence file. Specify "rebuild_in_place=False" and that should work well. You might cut off the resolution at 1.8 A to speed it up and slightly improve the model-building but I expect that wouldn't make too much difference. The phase extension should automatically be carried out in steps in autobuild density modification.
All the best,

We've used this for a recent structure solution, where we cut out the density for the protein from the SAD-phased map, then used the density as a molecular replacement model where rigid-body refinement was enough to determine the small shift in rotation and translation required to place that density correctly in the native cell. Cutting out the density and preparing a corresponding MTZ file for Phaser can be accomplished fairly easily using Tom's phenix.cut_out_density tool, if you have a PDB file that can be used to define the envelope for the protein density. Once you've phased the native data with that map, then you can use Tom's phenix.multi_crystal_average to average between the two forms. You'd probably want to follow that up by phase extension of the native crystal, but now starting
