Auto to 5 Speed Using Auto Tranny Harness

Title says it all.. Currently almost finished with my 5 speed swap. As far as wiring goes. I know about looping/jumping the two wires together for the neutral safety switch. Other than that, what do I need to connect to what in order to get my reverse lights and speedometer to work?? My auto tranny harness is currently in my auto tranny still. There’s one set of wires which goes into the tranny for all the auto bullshit which I’m guessing could just be cut off the tranny. Correct me if wrong. Then on my 5 speed tranny i believe there are 3 connectors. The auto harness doesn’t plug into any so what will need to be wired for what to get everything in working order??

The manual speedometer sensor plugs into the engine bay harness without modification. The manual transmission has 3 switches sticking out of it, neutral gear switch,, 5th gear switch, and reverse gear switch for the lights.

Using the 6wire auto harness plug that plugs into the engine bay harness at the fuse box, I removed all wires except for the bottom two, I left about 6inches into which I wired in the forward most switch on the manual transmission which is the reverse switch.

The rest of the switches on the transmission are not necessary. If you have cruise control, search for my write up on how to get it working.

Please verify using the FSM.
