You'll need a new shift knob that's the same threading as the auto shift lever.

I can't link to cRSX but google it, there's a DIY for the RSX which is similar to the steps that would be needed for the TL.

You just need to buy the MT shift boot part # 77304-SEP-A01ZA (12 in diagram) and the silver trim around the boot part # 77305-SEP-A01ZA (13 in diagram) and you'll lastly need a new sweet looking shift knob.



Here's how the DIY would look like:

1. You remove your shift knob by turning it counter clockwise.
2. Remove the silver trim (14 in the diagram) around the shift knob using a trim tool or something flat.



Remove the carbon fiber trim around the shifter using the same tool ; just a few clips.

3. Remove the PNRD assembly (12 in the diagram above). Should be a clip in each corner.
All you should see is the bare shifter (10 in the diagram above).

4. Take your new shift boot and screw it into the manual silver trim.

5. Replace the carbon fiber trim.

6. Put the shift boot/manual silver trim over the shift lever and push it back in place on the carbon fiber trim.

7. Install new shift knob.
Found one done in a Lexus
