You'll just need to jump the neutral safety switch, reverse lights Should *I have no idea* be the same. As far as the clutch pedal set-up goes, just take the bottom of your dash out on the drivers side and start haning.

Take the old brake pedal off, put on the new brake pedal, bolt the clutch pedal assbly up, drill a hole in the cowl, run a bolt through it (the sleeve from the brake pedal works AWESOME for added support between the assembly and the cowl, just cut a 45'-ish angle on one end, about 1-2" long) Run the Clutch MC through the firewall, bolt it up, run your lines, hook up the slave to the trans, fill it with fluid, bleed it, and try it out. It really is pretty simple. If Houston wasn't 16hrs away or whatever, I'd be happy to help you out, but it is. :icon_bigg
