2nd gen Eclipse tranny question

Hey guys, I have a quick question.
Is it possible to do a tranny swap on a 2nd gen Eclipse from auto to manual? Is it common?
If i were to do something like this, how much would i be looking to spend and where would i go about finding parts and such?
Thanks in advance

it is possible, look it up here http://members.shaw.ca/costall/1000Q/
and it would take around $500
