Pick up a B&M Pro Stick. You can purchase a gate plate for a 4 speed auto.
I was afraid to do this for years but recently installed one, its no big deal.
You will have to custom mount the shifter, you will lose the "step on brake to shift from park" crap and there is another cable that keeps the steering wheel from locking unless the car is in park, so without the cable hooked up the steering wheel WILL lock if the key is turned to the off position, even if your rolling down the highway.

so keep it in mind. Wiring is not too bad. B&M has a backup light switch you can order seperately and it comes with a nuetral safety switch. For now I connected the nuetral safety wires together and left the backup lights unhooked, the other 2 wires in that bundle are for your remote hatch release. Car has to be in park or nuetral for the hatch release to work, I just use the key.
Honestly, mounting the shifter is the hardest part. Getting it to work with your stock console can be very tricky. I took the easy way out and chopped the middle out of my console, its a hack job and it looks like it too.
