I think its the LX & EX 5th gen's that have the armrest/compartment thingy above the e-brake. If thats what you are talkin bout. As for the AT, this is the best lookin AT knob I've seen. It goes most of the way down the column. I got it on my car, and looks pretty good. Also, it is possible to pull off a B series engine swap, cuz I got a LS auto. If u do muake that shift boot fit on the AT shifter, let me know, cuz I wanted to try that too, but wasn't sure how, so I got this knob when I found it. If you do this shift boot thing, let me know how u pulled it off. I know it can be done, I saw a pic once of it a few years ago. You'd want a shorter AT knob though for that.
