i've got a 98 with an auto. i also have a wrecked 95 with a stick and everything to go with it. did you have to modify your firewall to get the master cylinder in? and what about your ecu is it at the shop cause of the manual? thanks

Yes you do need to cut a hole in your firewall to install the mastercylinder and clutch pedal. The auto ecu will throw codes and your engine check light will be on.

The only real good tip I can give is to do your research before getting started. And before you start make sure you have everything. My friend pulled out the pilot bearing since he has done this kind of swap before.
