A guy over on STD posted a thread about how he retrofitted a W201 five-speed (where the starter hump is on the left) to his OM617 300SD. It looks quite simple, so I thought I'd post it here for those who might be interested.

Also, I'd be curious as to what everyone thinks of it, as I'm pondering doing this to my 'SD at some point.
