Icon5 03 Civic SI 6 speed swap issue

Hello, I have an 03 civic SI (still has k20a3), I'm installing an Acura RSX-s (05/k20z1) transmission and the shifter arms coming from the transmission do not line up with the cables coming from the fire wall. I tried to remove the arms from the orignal 5 speed and they are completely different bolt sizes and I cannot attach them on the new 6 speed. What should I do? Are there adapters for the arms? I have looked everywhere and no one else that has done this six speed swap is having this issue. Please help, I would love to have my car running again. P.S, Everything else seems to be perfect, it's just the cables attaching to the arms. Thanks ahead of time!!!

David

Once you have your cables sorted out, what are you going to do about the vehicle speed sensor (VSS) ???

Ended up just buying a new shift selector from an 06 RSX-S. As for the speed sensor I just used the all in one VSS converter that K tuned has. Everything is great now and I love my lightweight flywheel, 6 speed and engine mounts! Would definitely recommend the 6 speed for anyone.
