Where would I find a wrecked 6-speed?

I want to see how much the console piece with the cupholder around the e-brake would cost from a junk yard, but I don't know where to begin to look.

Anyone have any ideas?

Considering there were only 2700 6 speeds sold, i doubt you'll have much luck.

Maybe your dealship can get you a replacement?

Devnull, how did you find that? how much would it cost to upgrade my 01 to 02/03 side mirrors. I'd just need the shell and the glass.

Sorry dude. I just knew this one because I needed the same part at one point (my wife let my two golden retrievers in the car and one scratches the sh!t out of it).

I do have a good parts dude at my dealership and can find out though...

BTW:

Looks like ~ $145 each for the assym + glass (for an '01. I can't imagine that it is much more for the '03)

You should still be able to do this with the auto-trans. The differences aren't that big. If you have the ambition, you could mate it to a 6spd tranny (new) and be set.

Seems like a TON of work though...

I called Leith Acura, and they want $225 for the housing and the mirror. They said it comes painted.

devnull, would you mind seeing what $ you get quoted.

Dang! I really doubt that I would've got a better price anyway.

Thanks for this info. I was wondering WTF they were doing over there.
