Probably wouldn't be too hard. Just basic wiring I bet. Though I gotta' find one in blue...

Yeah me too. I was thinking about buying one until I saw the price. That one seems a little more reasonably priced. That and I am not even sure how to get the shifter off. Does it just unscrew?

MOMOs are expensive... and automatic shiftknobs are pretty easy to find..You don't want to go too cheap, though, because the quality sucks. If they're less than like, $40-$50, it's probably a safe bet they aren't that great...

The owner of the audio place i shop at said he's been talking with Reactive trying to get them to make an auto shifter with an overdrive button since he also has a vibe. If we can't get them to make one then we are gonna buy those.
