RE: STANDARD TO AUTO - 11/3/2007 8:27:25 PM    Doohickie Posts: 880 Joined: 2/6/2006 Status: offline I think you would need to remove the main harness from the donor car and move it into the other car, although I'm not 100% sure... and probably the PCM as well. Also, it would help a lot if the cars are from the same era (i.e., both are 01-03 or both are 04-06) because of the changes made between the 03 and 04 model years (particularly the CVVT on the engine).  What years are the two cars? It would be an interesting project, but make sure you have a lot of time and a good garage to work in! _____________________________ (in reply to cmprice) Post #: 2
