Necessary parts for manual to automatic swap 200

I know most people swap the other way around, but I need to put an auto tranny in my car instead of the M46. What parts are needed aside from the transmission itself?

Necessary parts for manual to automatic swap 200

Hi, I was thinking about swaping out my auto for a manual. Let me know if you want to trade.

You need the two hydraulic lines to the radiator cooler, a radiator equipped with a cooler (all new ones are), the driveshaft from an auto car, the shifter and linkage, the kickdown cable, the dipstick tube (should be on the trans), the flywheel/flex plate, and a new rear trans mount.
You'll also want to remove your clutch pedal, clutch cable or clutch master cylinder, and install a wider automatic brake pedal.
You could probably sell all the stuff as a kit for someone swapping the other way.
Might be easier to find a buyer for yours and buy one of the million or so used auto-box cars out there... just a thought.
