I am in the middle of a AT to MT and motor swap on a '98 GST & have run into a wiring issue...
I wanted to do as clean of a swap as possible, to ensure that there weren't any issues with jumping wires, cruise control or the reverse lights and no extra plugs in the engine bay, so I have the wiring harness from the donor car ('97 Spyder GST) that I was going to swap in.
The problem that I have run into is that there are more/different connections in the interior of the car.

I'm sure that someone has ran into this before, but I couldn't find anything when I searched. I am not scared to rewire (ok, maybe a little...) but am not sure that it is even necessary, so I am hoping someone can advise.
