pieterv3812 Member 29 Member For: 7y 9m 24d Posted 29/11/20 02:42 AM Share Posted 29/11/20 02:42 AM Does anyone know whether the auto shifter surround will find onto the manual cars and if they would shift properly. I'm wanting to change mine to the Auto surround for a project I have lined up.

Basically I want to use the bit that is the different shape to the manual. So I can use one of the aftermarket radio brackets for the auto cars. Would just the darker bit work?
