J_Supra_07 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Welcome to the club The auto to manual is not as easy as you may think. A manual box needs a different tunnel welded inplace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastcar Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 It won't be cheep either the getreg V160 gearbox will set you back £2500 at least for a second hand one. There are few peeps on here that have done it so they will be able to tell you more about it And welcome to the club[GRIN][/GRIN] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
