All 06+ Yaris have Electronic Power Steering. The electric motor is located up on the column, so that might be why so many eBay sellers list the rack as being "manual".

For conversion to manual, you can simply pull the EPS fuse, but the electric motor will offer some additional resistance to turning. You could probably pull the electric motor off of the steering column to alleviate that.

For replacing the rack, check out the power steering section of the service manual:
