Default wiring help with b/u light please

I converted to a Super T 10 four speed in an 81.

I have studied my wiring diagrams until my eyes won't focus now.

Which wires from the automatic shifter switch go to the manual switch on the tranny?

Also, can I just run the Neutral safety switch wires on the same automatic switch to the clutch pedal switch and have it work?

thanks

Dk blue and lt green are for the back up lights
yellow and purple/white wires are for the clutch switch,the wires should already be in the harness down by the clutch pedal.

thank you thank you thank you.


I tried to dicipher my wiring diagrams and couldn't make heads or tails out of it. I bought some nice diagrams that came in four sheets all in color and sealed in plastic.

That switch is, for some reason, all dotted lines and they get totally lost in all the color. Also, one of dotted lines just ends in the middle of the sheet and made no sense to me at all.

thanks to you it does now.
