Can you trick the computer?

Just out of curiosity... I have an 03 TL-S and I want to know if it's possible to trick the computer into pulling down on the sport shift to shift up and push up to shift down. Anyone tried or heard of such a crazy notion?

I've never taken apart the shift assembly, but wouldn't it make sense to just flip the wires?

Yes, already did it.
If you have a pin tool or the paietience to switch the pins around it would be cleaner looking

I got to say, some of the thing you guy do amazes me, and I am not meaning any disrespect by that. I am not too technically incline to try half the things you guy do, but always getting ideas from what other have try.

This is the highly technical process of removing the plastic piece, clipping the wires, and using butt connectors to put them back in reverse
