I just changed my shift knob using a knob designed for a manual, also rewired the O/D to a toggle switch.

I'm really excited about it... no more bulky auto shifter.

It's good to use the ebrake even if the auto is going to hold the car. The stop in the auto transmission can brake if it has too much pressure on it, and trust me, that is not a fun thing to happen. Even though it's not always necessary, if you're on a slope of any kind it's easier on your auto to use the ebrake

I always just end up turning it on in any car I drive bc I've always had a manual so if I drive my fiance's car or something I put on the ebrake out of habit.
