Hux 45 Report post Posted September 8, 2018 Looking at converting auto to manual. What is the difference in the surround section - smaller/larger - can it be modified or do I need to buy a new section? thanks craig Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
larryc94 38 Report post Posted September 8, 2018 The auto insert is not as deep, you will have a space between shifter boot. You can use and don't have to trim it. If you use a m/t on an auto you would have to trim it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rsanter 152 Report post Posted September 10, 2018 As said the difference is in the depth of the console insert. You can leave it as is and run it. If the gap bother you, you can also make a shim that would move the boot up to fill the gap Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hux 45 Report post Posted September 11, 2018 Thanks guys. Barnett thanks for the offer. I’ll see whether the space bothers me and make a decision after that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
