I'm suprised it has been a year and no one has replied!
I'll snap a photo for you when I get home from work mate.

Mine is still in the column so I dont know how much you will be able to see.

Not sure about differences between auto and manual however.

Hi mate, I bought one yesterday from a wrecker and he had a whole box full of auto & manual ones - during our chat he was saying the only difference is the length and strength/thickness of the lever. Being that the manual was made a bit bigger and thicker to take more pressure required to change the manual gear box. I'll take a pic of the it with the holes etc as I haven't fit into the column as yet (column currently being purchased and sent down to me)
