AT - to - MT center console swap?

I have a 05 coupe but I like the look of the 05+ MT shift boot / console / dash. I know that at the very least, everything from the radio to the arm rest would have to be swapped.
Has anyone done it?
Is it possible?

Possible? Yes. Lots of money? Yes. Been done? Yes.

I believe GTM has done it a few times. They have a "package" deal on it. Gurgen has done it.

This is the one i was talking about, but he only replaced the Shift boot.

But he also took down the pic so you cant see it.

I didn't replace the shift boot. I cut out and hand sewed the boot from a square yard of leather that i bought and fit it under the shifter disc.

But for Sean's center console its different isnt it? 05 has a different shifter for A/T. So he would have to buy a new center console frame for A/T and then do this.
