If you have a manual transmission come in!
Where is your clutch safety switch and how is it connected? I bought one and I can't find a way to mount it. It's like a black boxy switch with a rather large rectangle button that gets pressed in.

Re: If you have a manual transmission come in!
if its the factory switch, it mounts under the clutch pedal, there should be a tab on the pedal that hits the switch. I think. I can get a pic of mine tommorow.

Re: If you have a manual transmission come in!
the black box that you have is for the 4th gen setup. 3rd gens use a white box(attached to the pedal frame) with a plastic rod that is connected to the pedal.

Re: If you have a manual transmission come in!
later model 3rd gens have the large black box switch.
earlier ones must have used the white box w/ sliding rod mentioned.
Those pedals are 82-83. Get some w/ the provisions for the black box style switch and the hydraulic master cylinder rod (tab welded to clutch pedal.)

Re: If you have a manual transmission come in!
I didn't have any trouble hooking the master cyl. rod up to these pedals....are there possibly minute differences that I may be bending the rod or messing something up?

Re: If you have a manual transmission come in!
INCREDIBLY frustrating. I didn't even know there were different pedals out there. My swap is completed and I've been driving for a couple weeks now, forget the CSS, no way I'm taking those pedals out again. Maybe I'll try and fab something up down the road.

Re: If you have a manual transmission come in!
Just crimp the wires together and know your car. I never liked the CCS. At least make sure your e-brake works good and remember to put in neutral first.
