hey just wondering if it is necessary to have a lower wiring harness to do a 5spd swap… From what ive read you can just cannibalize one of the auto plugs. Im doin this swap today so any info would really help…

thanks

all you need is a plug for speed sensor and reverse lights. I’m sure 2 of the auto harness plugs will work. Wire those into harness under fuse box. I forget which plugs are which, use your FSM’s wiring diagram.

Make sure you short the nuetral switch circuit. Its a 2 wire plug near fuse box, splice the wires. Check wiring diagram for this too.

Good luck 🙂  
Andrew.
