Biennial flight review, instrument proficiency check. Minimum of an hour each ground and air instruction, plus 6 approaches and holding to get instrument current, plus 3 landings. Should be at night if you're going to fly at night (will cover day & night currency all in one).

Some of the instrument stuff can be done in a simulator.
