I paid $400 for my setup. That includes everything. It's not too hard to swap.

I paid $400 for mine also, wasn't too hard and well worth it.

I have a 5-speed already, but my question for the guys that converted is this: I know that on an old car, this change would not be that difficult, but for our cars, do you have to buy a new computer (designed for a manual transmission) when you swap an auto for a stick shift? Just curious because I was considering doing it before I found mine.
