i have to agree with ^ i miss my 3 on the tree/ but to do the swap you will need a the auto trans crossmember (remove the manual one), kickdown cable, auto trans radiator or separate trans cooler, auto column or floor shifter, and maybe drive shaft altered/lengthend/shortend, flexplate, maybe more all i can think of .....
