The computer (which will need to be flashed with your VIN), the wiring harness for the tranny, and something to block the hole in your floor. Thats it

Installing the computer isn't hard it's 3 connectors two screws. You already have a computer, the expensive part is having the dealer flash your VIN (at least to me it's expensive). Not to mention the commuter itself is roughly 150-300 dollars
