Lightbulb Auto tranny to M6 swap

Hey i have been thinking about this conversion for a while now. my questions are does anyone know of shops or individuals who are pretty knowledegable in this sell a kit with everything needed to make the conversion? how hard is it, is it just unbolt the auto knock out some panels and bolt on the manual and related parts or is there cutting? how long would it take and how many people could one person do this in his garage with a tranny jack and the appropriate tools? any advice and or tips will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

while an M6 might be funner to drive, really a stalled out auto is the way to go!

thats exactly why i want the manual the fun factor. i like shifting plus the sound when you shift and the milage if i am ever going to make long trips with it.
