Welcome....thanks for joining.

Going from a manual to auto or auto to manual is not as easy as you think, can be done.......and then personally I'd want the manual but that is me.

Ok, so you have to remove the trans, replace, run the cooling lines, change the shifter, some of the electrical stuff, replace one of the cv shafts, a few switches, change mounts.....for now that is a high level description......

I just switched my auto to a manual - what is job it was.

You sister would be better off selling the Honda and buying one with an auto
