Need Help Quick-Tranny Swap
Hey guys I am doing the Auto -> t5 swap on my 91 Z28 (350) and I got it almost complete. I read in the tech article that the reverse switch light wires were just taped under the dash but as far as I see this is incorrect. It looks from my repair manual that it is actually one of the wires that comes off of the automatic shifter connector/wire harness. Do any of you guys know which wire it is (either which position in the harness or color of wire) that I need to splice into to get the reverse lights to work when I put the tranny in gear? Any help on how to find the reverse wire would be greatly apriciated so I can drive the car home. Thanks in advance, Steven.

Steven,
I don't know it off the top of my head but I will check back when I get home tonight and if you have not received and answer I can help you.
Good luck. These cars are a blast to drive with the manual. Fun factor went way up for me.

The reverse light wires should be dark blue and light green.
Good luck!
