What does the pilot bushing have to do with the center console?

i would tell you to search but the question was already answered.
remove the radio/shifter trim. take off the 4 screws on the bottom to remove auto shift ring. get a manual shift boot and screw it in.

next time you have a dumb ass question use the search button before you make a thread. you could have found the answer to your question in one of the MANY auto-manual swap threads

or use 240sxtech.com lots of good stuff on there

This is only true for S13's. S14's need a different trim.
