Mocked up the center console and shift console. I found the shift console on eBay Australia.

Looks like everything fits fine. The forward mounts line up, but the rear mounts in an auto are on the auto shift plate so I'll need to design a bracket for that.

Worked on widening the airbox inlet. Not the prettiest but it'll work.

Hate to cut up NLA parts but I took a 1/2" off the front of the shift boot metal surround and the rubber boot.

Part no. for the shift boot bolts. The Toyota bolts are NLA but Yamaha shares some part numbers and Impex pulls up all manufacturers at the same time, like Hino, Toyota, Yamaha etc. Thanks for the tip on that one @logicbyondreaso

Looking good, last thing to address is the final bolt on the left holding the OTC plate - it interferes with the shift boot surround. This was my solution, a little time with a die grinder:

I think I've said this 14 times in this thread already, but the attention to detail here is incredible. Kind of reminds me of taking apart my broken macbook in college and being amazed that the inside was beautiful too.

I had no idea this was a thing. THANK YOU
