nope... you need to have a button on the auto to move it and the manual doesn't have that... i believe badger biker changed his auto knob... i would send him a pm... or do a search..
no button or trigger like mechanism?? mmm... i would def send a pm to BB and see what he says as i am pretty sure he put a different one on... i think he even put a boot on it as well...
On the Mazda 3's, the automatic shift knob doesn't have a button. You just unscrew the knob to remove it, but the thread on the shifter is small. I was looking at getting another knob and you need one with the spacer so it doesn't move around. I still haven't bought one because the ones that take a allen wrench to put them on always seem to loosen over time. Wish I could find a screw on one.
