Problem that lies therein, where the heck ya gonna find a yard that has a full Cobalt 5-speed, complete with shifter, linkages, clutch assembly, cables and hoses........oh wait, you would need a brake cylinder that has three line-outs for the clutch fluid, instead of the dual out, then there is the issue of making holes in the floor for the clutch pedal, and setting up the computer for a manual transmission instead of an auto........

Sorry dduffy, i do not see a manual trans swap into an auto being feasable unless you had a full donor car to work with, and even then, y not just fix up the donor, and use it?
