Auto to Manual Conversion

Hi,

I'm converting an auto mk1 to a manual, I've got all the parts except the bit of firewall that the clutch cable passes through.... Anyone able to help who may be in the process of cutting a manual shell up ? If cash isn't enough, am prepared to supply beer[:p]

The annoying thing is that I just took a 4-door manual shell to simms a couple of months ago[8~2][8~2][8~2] What I wouldn't do for a crystal ball.

Thanks,

Mark

    Hi Mark,
    I have a little firewall fitting to suit the mk1 clutch cable.

    $30 including postage sound good?
