Why search when you can get someone else to do it!

You owe me a steak meal in Chucks, Ft.Lauderdale next time I'm over there lol.
The $159.00 kit on the last post link looks good as there is no modification bracket to fit and you get all 3 solenoids so should be plug and play.
Post up the results when you get it sorted.

You have replaced the solenoid but did you check all the wiring from the solenoid to the transmission ECU? A break in the wiring anywhere between the 2 would give the same codes.
Code 63 does not specifically mean that no2 solenoid is faulty if a wire has broken or shorted out to that solenoid it would also give code 63.
