B&M Hammer Shifter installed but need wireing info.

I got a great deal on a B&M Hammer shifter and install was easy but the shifter never came with instructions and I have no idea what wire go's where. After a BUNCH of searching I only came up with ,was on my connector that pin A is black/white wire and B is Orange/black,C is dk. blue,D is lt. green,E is purple,and F is dk. green. I need to know which wires go to the NSS and reverse light switches mounted on the shifter. Also if I need a relay, How do I wire it in? Anybody have any schmatics on the wire routeing for this? This is on my 88GTA and it still has working vats if that makes any difference.

This shifter is a LOT better built than the megashifter and if you have a firebird with the leather boot around the shifter or a 6spd. console from a 4th gen you you can use the factory leather boot and just trim it down a little and then sew in elastic around where you trimmed the boot and it will fit snug around the shifter like the factory had it.

You have to understand, virtually everyone has the megashifter, and thats it. I have been looking all over for alternatives. It seems like no one makes jack for our cars. I am trying to find one that is managable to adapt to my camaro, how bad was yours?

To adapt it to work with my console was easy but I have the TA console that has the leather boot that go's around the shifter so adapting it wasn't bad but on a camaro it would be tuff. I think it would be fairly easy on any 3rd gen if you went with a 4th gen 6spd. console. I'll post a pic once I get my new shifter boot installed. After 16yrs. of use the factory one's not in the best shape. The only problem I'm haveing is the wireing. My shifter had no instructions with it and I know whitch switch does what.
I just don't know which wires runs to what switch.

I currently have no backup lights and the car will start in gear. I removed the factory piece from the stock shifter and left it plugged in so the car would start and it's just lying loose under the console. I need to change that ASAP.

With the car haveing VATS on it, I can't just twist a couple wires together and do away with the factory switch. I tried jumping a couple wires together on the factory plug but still no power to the starter. If anyone has any idea what wires go where,PLEASE POST.
