The Neutral safety switch is an integrated part of something called the clutch multifunction switch.

This is mounted on the clutch pedal pushrod

I'll be honest, I run one of those switches on my truck, because
without it it drives the PCM and my cruise control nutz.

But the neutral safety portion of the switch has been bypassed.
