^ Yeah. You'd have a much easier time selling your car private party and buying a used Fit with the trasmission you're looking for.

trade trade trade!

you would have to swap ecu's, gauge clusters, transmissions (duh), steering wheels, clutch pedals, slave cylinders, shifters+all linkage and a few other things i am forgetting. its almost as complicated as an engine swap, but you should do it because no one else has done it yet. bunch of poontangs if you ask me.

Why would you want to get rid of your MT?
Paddle shifters are lame anyways.

I've never drove the Fit, but my friend had an AT RX-8, and that had paddle shifters, and that got real ghey real fast, I can only imagine it in the beast that is the L15
(not like the rx-8 was fast, but still)
