I did a T-5 conversion about four years ago.
Thanks to Links found here on Stangnet the job was a great success from start to finish
The only thing I didn't do on my conversion was to connect the Neautral Safety Switch
It wasn't a big deal back then but now that I want to take it to the track its become a problem because the rule book says "vehicle must have a Neutral Safety Switch in working order".
I remember I didn't install it because I couldn't find anything to connect it too!
The switch was on the pedal etc but could not find the connectore "wrapped up in a wire loom that the instructions said
I looked and looked took all the wire looms apart etc.
I gave up and have been running without it ever since.
Any links that actually tell you how to wire one up etc?
My car is a 1990 LX (build date Jan 1990)

Eww...that's gonna be a hard one...mine were just hanging there with the jumper inserted in. If I was looking for an open plug I would have never found it myself. If I were in your situation, I think I would source an ignition kill from the parking safety switch that is now jumpered under the car ( the one that you either soldered together or used the T5 harness on. You could run the wire to the pedal and attach it there. Hope that helps.

It's taped up in the harness that's right around that area. You'll have to pull it down and then cut a little bit of tape to loosen it up, then pull the jumper out. Once you do that, just plug it into the receptor on the clutch pedal and you'll be good to go.

Hey thanks for the replies.
I try to find that jumper again Asha'man
if that fails I'll try to rig something with that parking safety switch that my auto had
Thanks!
I hope I find the jumper though.
