Hi all so I need some help. Can someone that's done a auto to manual conversion please tell me exactly what parts I need to complete this and can anyone also offer any advice regarding doing the conversion. Any tips or advice would be great.
I do have a doner car that I'm taking the parts off.

Just putting mine back together now.

Bits you need from donor car

Gearbox
Flywheel & adapter plates
Divider plate that goes between gearbox and engine
Clutch master cylinder, line and slave cylinder
Passenger side driveshaft
Passenger side inner shaft
Brake pedal
Clutch pedal
Clutch (if you aren't using a new one)
Shifter and cables
Gear surround
Cluster
Manual engine loom if you so desire
35mm hole saw for clutch master hole


You'll need a slide hammer to get the inner shaft out. I made one out of some threaded rod, nuts washers and galvanised pipe from Bunnings.

You need to make a template for drilling the hole for the clutch master cylinder.

You will also need to bypass the inhibitor switch wiring, hook up the reverse light wiring and possibly rewire the speed sensor if using the auto loom
