Several months ago I successfully completed what is considered the first automatic to manual transmission swap on an '05 Mustang GT while retaining all factory functions. After adding the blower, I was constantly worried about the auto holding up, so I researched the electrical system on the car and planned the swap. It went without a hitch (lucky Me!). I have provided a link below for anyone to see the "HOW TO" manual that I have created. I'd like to share the information.

Wow! I'm impressed with both your guts in taking on the swap in the first place and with your very detailed writeup.

Thanks guys. There were a few unknown things, for example, just how sensitive the pcm would be to wiring changes and how to load the new program in the new pcm. It went way smoother than expected.
