I was reading a thread the other day where some of you guys did the conversion from auto shifter to the leather boot from a manual. I went o my local mitsi dealer and apparently the price has come down a little, I got the boot and screws for just under $20. Yeah yeah I know it's only $4 but it all adds up. Whilst I was at Mitsi's the bloke there lent me a auto gear knob off of a 380 series 2 (mn168273xa) is the part #. I tried fitting it but the actual shaft from my te is much skinnier than the 380 and also the cable does'nt seem to want to locate on the lever button. The gear knob itself is similar to a vr/vs commodore style. So in saying that I guess it comes down to how much time you want to spend mucking around with it. Plus I think they come in a very limited colour range. Mitsi's were asking about $30 for a 380 gear knob.
