940 Manual Transmission? 900

My girlfriend has a 940T and has always wished it had a manual transmission. I know Volvo sold these cars in Europe with the M90 gearbox which is pretty much not available in North America. You can also swap in a Toyota Supra gearbox with some modification and a kit from Dellow Automotive in Australia. But can you just get the M46 or M47 out of a 7xx series, along with pedal box, etc, and just swap that right into the 940? Or is the shifter location different, etc. Anyone done this? Seems like it should work, but I can't find any info out there on the 'net about doing it. I found a page about swapping an M46 into a 780 Bertone, but that's about it. Any info, links, etc would be much appreciated! Thanks

Karl
