Default 4L60E Floor shift conversion

I've been checking the forum and other sites about converting from column shifter to floor (1999 new body style, 4L60E). I see a number of PT members have done the conversion, but when I talked with the shift manufacturer's tech about it, I'm told I need a stand-alone transmission controller. (This was from B&M and Lokar) What am I missing?

I've thought about this conversion myself, but haven't researched it yet. I have seen pictures around here from guys who have done it, but I can't remember who . I'd search the entire GM section for "B&M shifter", or "Hurst shifter", or "Floor shifter", or keywords along those lines. Hopefully someone who's done the conversion will see this thread and have the info you need...

why so hard? get the stuff a ls1 camaro uses and put it in with a aftermarket shifter.

go to ls1tech and look for people who put aftermarket shifters in
