any one have any help on the wiring for a manual swap on a p5

I have all the parts, after i find the tranny, but i have wiring questions, tranny is out, pedels are coming but what now
 
Another option is just to bypass the neutral safety switch. I did a manual swap in my other car and I left all the wiring. It's definately the easiest way to do it. Bad news is, it was probably over ten years ago when I did that and I couldn't tell you what I did, and I'm sure the wiring is different than what my car was. But if you decide to try to go that route, you have to get used to being able to start the car without pressing the clutch. If it's in gear it will start and go. It might only move a small amount and die, or a few feet and scare the s*** out of you when your not expecting it. I just got in the habbit of parking in neutral and using the parking brake.
