I dont know how much it would cost, But I am going to my local dealership and going to see if they could do it and how much all of it is going to cost. They should have all the parts brand new that you could purchase. So i should be able to have the info on manday.
prepare to get a** raped by the stealership
+1

they will try to sell you the car all over again

you guys are all crazy, ha. I know it would be awsome to convert to a manual, and I have thought of it often, however you could easily find an SRT-4 for less than it would cost you to convert. And dealerships are good places to buy parts, just not great for service.

Nor could you swap your trans for anywhere close to that. Point?

Unless your counting labor for the swap, it shouldnt cost anywhere near $1,500 to convert to an MTx...

you guys are crazy, and honestly have no idea of what's involved, It's not worth it, sell your car and buy a mtx neon. Go ahead get quotes before you say anything else.

If anyone's crazy here, it's you.

reason one: if a part isnt made anymore it should go on clearence unless it's a collerctor item and A peice of molded plasic to cover fuel injectors hardly counts as collectable

reason two: I wasn't figuring labor into it, but if I was, you're talking 2-3k to swap, parts and labor. Show me where I can get a SRT4 for that price. because I will buy it

thank you
