Hello gays,
This is my first post on this forum , I need to know is there any suggestion or solution to REPLACE 42RLE transmission to manual?

Thanks,
 
AX15 was my choice when I do some web research , unfortunately it’s very difficult to find here in Saudi Arabia.
So, I have to import AX15 thats would be around 1600$+shipping fees. And might be there is a need for adapter.
I don’t know what to do.
