First think you need to learn about is sentances and periods...but I won't bug you too much. Yes its possible to swap an auto out and put in a manual. It is more then just unbolting the auto and bolting in the manual and there ya go...depending on the year there are various wiring issues you'll need to know about, You'll need to check to see if you'll need to get a manual computer instead of the auto computer. Also don't forget you'll have to install a clutch pedal and hook that to your tranny to. Search this site, you'll find LOTS of info, but it takes time to read
