the modification is to the harness that goes to the auto shifter so you can trick the car into thinking its in park (so it will let you start the car, kinda like the clutch switch). You also need to run two wires for your reverse lights (which is easy). The wiring is simple, no need to complicate things by re-wiring the car with a different harness.


When i ran my reverse wires, i used one of the plugs that is leftover in the harness from the auto trans. The plug matched my reverse sensor and i just found which wire it was inside the car and hooked up those to the old reverse wires from the auto shifter.
