Could anyone please give me some suggestions or dimensions for what i need to weld in place to cover up the the hole left from my auto when i did the manual conversion? I want to seal it completely off from water and all.

There should be one where the shift cable went through, but the large hole is where the shifter goes up through. get the piece of metal from a manual civic or integra with the ring for the inner boot and bolt or weld it into place (the ring will just fit through the large hole) for the smaller hole cut a piece of sheet metal a little larger than the hole and again bolt or weld it into place.

I just cut a cover out of a piece of sheet metal and bolted it in with a gasket.
