New transaxle?

I still haven't replaced the Getrag F23 trans in my '04, and I really need to, it's getting bad-bad now. I was trying to find the cheapest low mileage used one I could, when I found a new 2009 F23. I e-mailed the seller to check if it will fit my '04 (sure looks the same, same RPO code), but I wanted the input from someone who doesn't have any financial stake in it. It's only a bit more (with free shipping and insurance) than most of the good low mileage ones I've found and it's new.

No, front mount is in wrong location.

Do you know if everything else lines up? If that's the only difference, I can fabricate my own mount. Or, if you know if the shafts/gears would swap, I could just do that. I was trying to see what all it fits, and I found that the 1-4 synchros are carbon (or carbon coated, I forget). The '04 has a different synchro or coating for 3/4, and since those are the ones that are bad on mine, and 1/2 are still good, I figure the carbon is better.
