This has come up before, but not too recently. There's only a minor 
difference in the rooster comb where the gear select cable connects. I 
believe the pushbutton units are set up so it's easier to shift whereas the 
console units take a little more effort. Someone who has done the swap will 
surely fill us in on the nitty gritty.
