My luck, If I did something like that, I'd get in the car one eve after driving a HMMWV and think it was dimmer switch...!

I should check into another wiring project for the trans. It is electronically controlled, so 2 solenoids control what gear it is in (1st - 4th) and a separate switch controls the lockup, so I could more or less drive it like a stick besides the fact the "clutch" would be the TQ converter.
My truck is similar in that regard, and I've thought of doing the same thing. I've got way too much slippage in the lower gears... I think it's time for a fluid change, but atf4+ is so darn expensive!!! maybe I'll just run some 15w40 like we do in the big trucks and call it a day! (JK!!!)
