Getrag 265 shifter Q (archive)

Amm about to put in 265 (overdrive 5-speed unit). What do I do for the shifter? Does the 265 shifter and platform fit on the coupe tunnel? I know I'll need a support at the rear, but is the length right, or should I retain the 4-speed shifter?

Found a potential buyer for the 4-speed (a shop needs it for another coupe, coincidentally) and may swap the 4-speed for the 5-speed installation. Painless, maybe, if they go for it.
