I migth be wrong but I know the egs and efs you can use the auto cluster in a manual car or vice versa so i think you would be able to use the same cluster .make sure you dissengage the nuetral saftey switch and also let me know about my pm i sent you asap

you got everything covered except the hydrolic line from the master to slave. And if its a ek you neeed the OEM 5 speed bracket and tranny mount, if its a teg you need a auto to manual conversion mount , and no matter which car it is you need a 5 speed rear t bracket. And if its a EK you need longer bolts for the tranny mount that bolts to frame rail as the auto ones are to short and thats eveything and ye you can use yourrr auto cluster the gear indicator wont work of coarse and also the standard wiring that go's with a auto to 5 speed to bypass the auto shifter

np man everything i just told you should be all you need to know. also you need a 5 speed starter and 5 speed flywheel bolts as the auto flexplate bolts are shorter , i think that now covers everything lol
