TECH. Actual tech!
Using an h15x/HF1a transmission and t case shifter moves the shifter location away from the HZJ79’s r151/split case location. The cutouts are annoyingly different and not easy to cover. I found an active part number in the US system for the gray VDJ79 mat. It came to my local dealer in 3 days.
58510-60U10-B2
The shifter cutouts line up perfectly but the snap between the front and rear mats is off a little bit. I’ll just add a new male snap onto the rear mat if it bothers me enough. Or use some Velcro to tape it down.

Also, the H15x transmission hump cover that is now available is from the VDJ7x…58013-60071, and the shifter boot is 58280-60370. The funky tapered flange bolts to attach boot to cover are 91673-80616 (x6).

List of motors for this truck:
1. Buy an FT from @joekatana. Put it in truck.
2. Sell FT because FTE sounds exciting.
3. Buy FTE from @chapel gate.
4. Sell FTE (dammit divorce).
5. Buy an FTE from @joekatana.
This one’s going in. As a late model Euro spec it will need the swirl flaps deleted and a CT26 pattern turbo and manifold. Time to get to work.
Thank you @joekatana for always finding me exactly what I need. Always great to see you, my friend.

I like how he’s got a cold beer on the fork lift 
Doesn't OSHA require a cup holder for beer drinking/forklift safety?
Not necessary if the beer is in an orange koozie.
Ripe for “hold my beer” meme
Bill looks all healthy again too! Glad he survived Roundup
