GP interested in Front Auto to Manual Swap Bracket?
Tuesday, July 31, 2007 12:51 PM
Would there be interest in having a GP on the Auto to Manual front bracket? GM sells the rear one, but does not sell the front.

These list at $74.99 but if we had 5 solid "ready to purchase now" members, we could do $44.99. If we had 10 ready to purchase we could do $39.99.

Any thoughts on this?


Here is a pircture of the product:

$74 is the normal price?? Dang. Have you thought about making the rear as well? Would probably sell more if you had both. Truly you can use 2 rears to do it.

You can use 2 rears however there is more fab required and this way keeps a more factory look.

Not anymore fab work than doing this swap to start with. The point in my post was to suggest making a rear and selling a set. Maybe around $75 for a set.

You can get the GM one for about $35 i think.... We wouldn't be much if any cheaper than that.

We could possibly stock that one from GM and send them out as a "kit" to make it easier...

Gmpartsdirect has it for $17.33. Last time we bought them it was $25 at the local dealer. If you have a GM contact you might be able to get a deal on some and sell a package deal.

Many convert and use this, we have sold around 30 of these in the last 2 years, we have 30 in stock... It works great.

I did the sway from a 1996 2.4L auto trans to the 00+ getrag 5 speed. It does take time, but very possible to do. I know we have sold many of these brackets so many have done what I have done to my car.

I still want to know exactly what you are reading. I do not need to search because I know how to do this swap. I also know the + to it. I'm trying to find out what you are getting to says it is not worth it.

Also what is on your list of things you need?
