I've been searching for about an hour and I can't seem to find a detailed instruction on the clutchswitch wiring mod...

From what 've gathered so far...

Goes clutchswitch with a blue wire and a black wire....
The wires then connect to a plug where the blue wire and green wire meet and the 2 blacks go together...

The green wire then goes up under the console into something plastic, and the black 1 I cannot trace b/c it goes into the big mess of wires next to the fuse box...

From what I've been trying to understand from tmo is they say cut the green wire with red stripe and wire it to pin 104 on the ecu after cutting the wire that is grounded there...Leave that wire black taped and out of the way(ground off ecu)

But if I do cut the wire won't it leave the rest of the green/ed wire hanging? Also is there anything to do with the black wire?

I don't care if I still need to have the clutch in or out to start the car don't matter to me..

Install it as follows. The purple wire on the right goes to the ecu (pin 104). The plug you see goes to your clutch switch. The black mass is just heat shrink tubing on a simple solder connection. I would recommend just soldering the wires together rather than using vampire taps as shown in the picture.

Ok now the way you make it go is when the connector is plugged into the clutch switch cut the green wire in half and solder in a wire that goes into pin 104 of the ecu.

That way the car still reads weather or not the clutch is pressed in while trying to start the car, right?

Also what size diode does it need to be? I could always go to the local radio shack and get 1.
