step 1-sell ur current teg
step 2-buy a new teg in manual
step 3-profit by a 200-400 bucks since autos are easier to sell and are considered more expsneive

auto to manual converision complete. not really worth it to do the swap with a teg when u have a buttload of same cars available in stick

yeah the cheapest way would be to sell it. But if you really put a lot already into your car (like me) then go for the auto to manual swap and you'll appreciate it a lot more.

You'll need to source all the necessary parts, such as the correct pedal set, clutch master cylinder, hard lines, slave cylinder, the tranny, clutch, flywheel, correct ECU, shift linkage, shifter, shift ****, bushings, fasteners, and anything else I may have missed. The biggest issue you'll run into is the location of the upper tranny mounting location. You'll either have to fabricate a new mounting location (I've done it before and it's not that hard), or buy the necessary conversion mount from somewhere such as Place Racing.

Regarding the wiring, the reverse light sensor thingy just plugs right in and you shouldn't have any issues, the only other wiring we had to do was run a jumper wire to bypass the neutral safety switch (really really easy).

the wireing harness by the center console had sum plugs that were supposta plug into the auto shifter... is that what ur talking bout? should i leave does pluged in?
(i read to bypasss the park setting to take the key off i should leave that white box pluged up)

and wheres the neutral safety switch and whats the point of that?

thanks againg
