you can make the trans lock into 1st gear by pulling the shifter all the way to the rear (2nd) and then pushing it back into drive and slamming it back into 2nd quickly. The car will shift down into first and lock there until you shift it back into 2.

mattknight, i'm confused. are you saying that if i start with the shifter in 2nd, then shift into drive and immediately shift back into 2nd, i will be in 1st gear, with the indicator on 2nd? it seems to me like it would be alot easier to just have a 5-speed put in. maybe next year.
