I have a 1998 3.0 V6, and I swapped the automatic transmission out for a Mazda MR1 manual transmission last winter.:icon_welder: I had all of the important stuff hooked up, and I just left the backup lights for another day. I decided that I would like to get them hooked up this week hopefully, and I was wondering if somebody could just give me some easy answers without having to spend hours looking through a wiring diagram or anything of that nature. Pictures would be great. Thanks guys.
 
At the old connector for the DTRS (neutral saftey switch) you'll find a VT/OG (violet wire with orange stripe) and BK/PK (black with pink stripe). Those will be the two wires you need to connect to your reverse switch on the driver side of the transmission. You'll need a connector for the switch. The switch is red.

TN/RD and PK go to the clutch pedal switch, or join those two wires and have no clutch switch, for the starter.
