Where to get shiftlock and PNP switch wire pigtails for M6 to A4 swap I'm trying to figure out what wiring pigtails I need for shiftlock and PNP switches? It is mentioned in THIS post from an M6 to A4 sticky that "you bought from the dealer for an exceptionally high price". However, I wasn't sure what to ask for when I called the dealer and we couldn't figure out what I was talking about. Is there a part number or something I can ask for? I was hoping someone who has done this swap could give me more specific information so I could get the harnesses I need.
Thanks!
Thanks!

When I did my conversion I used a B&M hammer shifter. It came with two micro switchs and I used those for the backup lights and pnp switch. From what I understand the steering columns are different in a4 and m6 cars so I didn't do the shiftlock. I ran the wires for the backup and pnp switch. I also switched over to a auto harness so I could hold on to my m6 harness in case I want to switch back in the future. Gave me a chance to clean up and remove connectors for stuff I didn't have anymore.

I'm using the factory shifter, and I don't have the plug for the wiring that connects to it. Also swapping to an A4 engine harness, but that won't really affect the shifter portion, will it?
