Just a couple things I can think of off the top of my head.... you'll need the shift linkage, a new center console for a manual shifter, the actual shift knob and you should probably just buy a short shifter while your in there. So that right there, if you can find a good deal on it all, is an additional $100+. Besides that, I don't know the actual mechanical end of swapping auto-to-manual. I assume it's just bolts and tranny fluid. Go buy a Chilton (Mechanics Book), that should help.

I had a friend who converted his....he finally got it to work but he went through months of agrrivation....dude i say leave your car auto.
