There a couple thing you can do, depending on your budget.
Here are just the shifters.  You may of may not have to modify your floor.

You can buy these cable shifters.  The reverse shifters.

You can buy this kit from DEO.

The most expensive option is going to be this RAC.

You could also make your own cable shifters, probably the most economical.  Search around on Pirate a little and you can find several people that have done this.  Here is a link to get you going on the cables.

You could leave pass drop, and just put in better axles.
