The 5MT's don't have gear lights. And yes it would be ideal to swap to a 6MT because of the performance aspect of it, but if he's looking more into just cruising and fuel economy, the Accord 5MT is the way to go.

Ah ok. I remember seeing a video of some guy's Accord with MT, and I noticed that the gear icons looked different. Like, there was R, N, then M-D or something. It also had a shift light I think. Eh, whatever, lol.

No, there are no lights on the 5MT like on the AT. There is also no shift light. The reason why an Accord 5MT could be a good idea, is because it would cost less than a TSX 6MT. You can pick up a used Accord 5MT for around $250-300, or a TSX 6MT for about $900-1000.

Problem Solve!!! it was the freeking pulsar plugs that had gone bad..those things are suppost to be superior to the OEM plugs but they went bad quicker than the stock causing the car to stall and make the lights on the dash flash..so i took those pulsar plugs out and i replaced them with some NGK's for now.

That was me who did the 5 mt to 5 at swap. its a straight swap plus you have to modify the wiring harness on the transmission side to make it work. I'm not sure if what you have to modify on the harness though.
back on topic, glad to hear that you fixed your problem. I've thought about getting pulsestar plugs but then I googled them and came up with lots of problems with using them.

We were talking about 5
AT
to 5
MT
swap. Not the other way around.

That means he would have to do an AT to MT swap. I'm sure it's a cost he's not willing to incur.
does anyone have a parts list of what is needed to do the swap? i know there was a guy who went from a 5speed MT to the AT ..
I was refering to this and what Paulius005 found on gen7accord on the 5 mt to 5 at swap.

Makes sense, but he's got a 5AT. Either way, problem resolved and no sense in arguing.
