auto pedals to manual ones

well, im getting ready to do the auto to manual swap, and i got bored the other day...i have a full silvia set of manual pedals that im going to put in my s13...anyway, the gas pedal went in nice, and i like it better than the stock one, it cleaned up a lot of the slop in it.

then came the hard part...i looked at my trusty new FSM and find out where all the bolts are for my brake pedal and i then procede to take all the bolts off and that was fine...until it came time for the little ghetto plastic thingy that is on the end of the pin that connects the pedal to the master cylinder... it took me 1 hour to get it off, and i ended up cutting the damn thing off lol

i droped the steering column to try and get the prake pedal/braket out, and had no luck...i spent a ton of time, actually my whole saturday lol (since im an incompetent moron...), trying to get it out. i tried to take off the steering wheel and see if that would lower the steering coulmn even more, but i couldnt get the damn thing off (and yes i took the nut off that attaches it)...

any suggestions about swapping the auto pedals for the manual ones? im totally stumped by this one...

one more thing, i havent looked into this too much yet, but i noticed that there is a little green box about 2"x3"x1" right where the clutch pedal/bracket should go (not on the firewall, but sorta mounted under the dash)...what should i do about this?

who else it would look super sweet to have a clutch pedal w/ an auto tranny? come on
thanks-
glen
