G'day,
I picked up a M20 four speed box at a swap meet last weekend and I'd like to fit it into my HG sedan, which leaves me with the dilema of either getting my hands on a tonner/ute shifter or fitting buckets.

I'm actually leaning towards fitting bucket seats and perhaps a console. Since HK HT HG buckets are hard to find and expensive if you can, I was wondering what other buckets might fit. I was thinking along the lines of either LC-LJ Torana or HQ-HZ and maybe a HQ-HZ four speed console, but I'm open to sugestions.

Any thoughts on this?

Cheers,
Dicko.
