I'm currently packing an ibiza with a manual gearbox on a dsg dq250, I have the whole swap, clutch, gearbox, axle shifter, etc. but I'm interested in how the electricity is connected, has anyone done it, is there somewhere to get some conversion of the installation or if someone can contact me to make a diagram where it is connected and what, thanks in advance, greetings:)
 
Greetings to you too jovan. I'm slightly confused. Are you intending to fit a manual gearbox in place of the DSG auto or t'other way round, putting the auto into a vehicle at present running a manual box? In days gone by it was not all that hard to do either - although new pedal box, Flywheel/torque converter, gear shift, etc will be needed. Nowadays though, I think you'd find it simpler and probably cheaper to just buy another vehicle with the gearbox you want because the electrics will be significantly different - It's not just going to be a few wires swapped over. Anyway, whatever you decide to do I wish you good luck and do keep us informed as to how the conversion goes?
 
It should be noted that the op car is running a stage 3 map (and I am guessing associated hardware) so it may not be easy to swap all that stuff to a new car.
