Reverse lights and cluth start switch

well, my car was an auto to manual swap and the owner before me seemed to have left out these two things. i still have the wiring from the auto with the neutral safety wires jumped so the car starts w/o the switch. my main concern is the reverse lights which i need to pass inspection (coming up in june). what would i need to get this problem solved. 87 GTA 355 TPI BW T-5. I have a hurst competition/plus shifter. is there a harness on the trans for the wires? possibly get it off another trans and splice it in??

light green and dark blue wires in the console that originally hooked up to a switch that connected along with 4 other wires to the auto shifter. run these down to the plug on the drivers side of the tranny case and wire them up. shift to reverse and check for lights.

Do a search on "safety switch", there's a thread with pics.
