A friend of mine desperately wants a Fiat Multipla, and I don't blame her. However, she absolutely refuses to drive a car with a manual transmission. The Multipla was never offered with an automatic transmission so obviously that presents a problem. I did some looking around and found that the Fiat Bravo/Brava/Marea, which are mechanically similar, were offered with the same 1.6 petrol engine and an automatic transmission.
So my question is: Do you guys reckon it'd be possible to do a transmission swap? Has anyone on here done anything like that? What difficulties do you anticipate I'll run into? I'm open to any feedback.
 
Yeah I know the Multipla is practically worthless in terms of value, but that makes it such a fun project in my mind.. If I screw up, I won't be in the hole for much! I'm dreading the electrical stuff most like you warned about. Do any other obvious hurdles come to mind?
