Very difficult; most attempts have ended up very expensive failures. It would be far cheaper to sell your car with an automatic and put the proceeds into buying one equipped with a 6MT from the factory.

If all kinds of unexpected expenses, constantly running into brick walls, cost overruns, never-ending headaches, and thoughts of suicide are your thing, then, by all means, give it a shot!

I attempted to do this on my 5AT Type-S.

A local motor sport shop took some time to get quotes for me. At around $14k just for parts I just decided to Alt+F4. I drove 2000 miles and picked up a 6MT instead.
