For the TH400, passenger's side of the center hump is trimmed and an additional panel bonded in to provide clearance for the tranny. May not be the case with the TH350s, but carpet for the AT should have a little more material along the hump.

I bought a set from wilcox, and the guy told me there was no difference in the carpets. I never have installed it though. It is still in the box.LOL

I think the only difference is the plastic padding just below the brake pedals, the shape of it is different on auto than manual.

Actually it would depend on what year the carpet is as to if there was a difference.
