Default What trans mount for r154? auto to manual

I recently got a r154 from an mkiii. Does anyone know which trans mount and which trans crossmember I need to make it fit into my 95 sc300 auto. Any help is appreciated.

Weld up and drill out your stock one with slightly offset holes to match the R154.

i used a 92' sc300 w58 trans mount and the crossmember... i only got two bolts in the mount to the tranny, and it was an event getting the mount to drop into the cross member, but a hammer and a bar dropped it in enough to get some nuts on them

Sc1GT, i just got to that point and there's no way in hell fro the tranny to fit right in the stock crossmember. Acording to you, you forced it in the crossmember which i don't think is good for the mount since it's gnna be torqued sideway, what do you think?

well, all i have to do is to offset every hole by 1/4 inch including the mount holes. your objective is to get the crossmember closer to the engine. it tokk about 20 minutes with a dremel..
