I believe the regular manual mounts will work for you, the chassis is the same between the auto and manual cars...

The auto mount location is a little different from the manual mount location. You can either buy a mount made for this, or drill out and weld in the factory manual mount location. If you have already done this part, then yes all you would need is the rear bracket.
