    Are you looking at doing this yourself? or paying for it to be done.

    From what I've seen from previous posts i think your looking at around the 5k mark.

    If you want a manual, it's cheaper and easier to just sell up and buy a manual. Was thinking of doing it myself until I realized the costs involved and what manual cars were selling for.
