Yes, searching is a good idea.

The conversion is NOT easy, as you need to fabricate custom transmission mounts because the underside of the body is not the same and the stock MT mounts will not fit. If you can weld, then this will not be a problem. If you can't weld, and your AT works OK, then I suggest selling your car and buying one with an MT.

rotaryresurrection makes conversion mounts for $40. the hardest part i think would be the wiring, pedals, and driveplate removal
