Changing shift **** on automatic w203?!?!?

Is it possible to change the shift **** on the automatic w203?? And if so, can it be replaced with any Manual shift ****??

Any info and/or instructions would be awesome

I replaced the automatic **** on my SLK with a stick **** that I've had on a Honda and a BMW previously. Can't be too much different. The leather boot is different however.

First, you need to remove shift **** trim. Then, you will have access to the base of the shift **** which can be loosened by twisting it counter-clockwise.
