Looking at Dr Bob's site, the 728 is used in Manuals (T5 and Getrag) and Autos and the 672 were used in Autos only.
I would have thought this meant the 728 could be used in either.
Maybe Dr Bob can confirm?

I just check all the 728's PCM's only to find they are auto / Getrag ones.
I payed for a T5 one but its missing the extra bits shown in Doctor Bob's picture.
so buyer beware.

Anyone desoldered those parts to measure them so we can put a couple of resistors on the vs one to convert it? I have one sitting here, could do it if its needed.

shouldn't even need to de-solder .... and yeah, work out the values and you could easy solder some normal resistors in there!

I was told all the RFI PCM's are complete and that's why they cost more to buy when new.
The RFI PCM's were swapped in on the production line when changed to police BT1 packs.
Well thats what I was told when I went down the production line at Elizabeth plant in Adelaide.
