Just recieved my Sparco Globe X shift **** for my tC which is an automatic. After an hour of searching on the internet on how to install it I finally figure out its for manual transmission only.

I guess under where it says notes "MTM" is secret code for Manual Transmission Only.

Is there any adapter or something I can buy to make it fit my auto? I really like how this **** looks and hope theres a way I can make it fit. Anyone have any suggestions plz?

Sparco shift ***** are designed to work on manual transmission cars and trucks only. Sparco shift ***** may work on some automatic transmission ***** without a gear selector button. Also fits manual transmission shifters with reverse lockout collars.

Hmm I wonder if I could get a manual collar or whatever and see if that would work.

the tC doesnt have a gear selector button right? doesnt the shift **** just screw right off and then you screw on the sparco?

Revilo

^^^ I have the same opinion that he has. It should fit.

Right the tC doesnt have a gear selector button. The stock one screws right off but theres nothing on the bottom of the Sparco **** to screw into like the stock one. Ill get some pics of both of the bottom parts tomorrow.

I have that exact **** on my manual tC it has an adapter that has 3 set screws to go on the shifter then the **** screws onto the adapter....it should be able to work on the auto as long as whenu take the **** off its just a pole and not threaded...I believe the guy who had my tC b4 me cut the threads off the manual shifter to adapt for the knoe adapter.

try it should fit

Hmm the pole of the shifter is really small, not big enough diameter to fit under the sparco **** snug. So what your saying is to put the screws in the sparco **** and make them tight enough to go around the pole right? Ill try this today. For some reason the little wrench for the small screws it came with wont fit inside the **** so I cant screw them in right.

The shaft for the automatic shifter is 8mm.
The shaft for the manual shifter is 12mm.

You need an adapter. Or a whooooooole lot of electrical tape.

Thanks! Figured i'd need an adaptor or something. Now time to find a place that sells an adatper. Gonna try the dealership and pep boys or whatever today.
