Ok, I have a column shift auto EBII and want to convert it to manual. I will be using a 2nd hand box seeing as I cant really afford a reco one but what else do I need and what costs are involved? I have already converted the car to bucket seats and I think I need to cut a hole in the floor for the shifter so that could make things more difficult and I dont really have much experience.

I believe you'll need a clutch, cable, assorted bearings etc, as well as a manual pedal box. A standard steering column would also be good
