Default Neutral safety switch?

How did you guys handle the neutral safet switch in first gen camaro with 6 speed?
I know what wires in the car but is there a plug on 6 speed tranny to hook it up or have to install a switch to the pedal? I knew the solution but it's been a while and forget about it. pls give me some light on this .
thanks

you could ground that wire i believe

Im not sure what your asking really. Are you working on a switch that requires the clutch be depressed to engage the starter?

I like to know how to wire the car so that without pressing the clutch it would not start. Should we fab a switch on the pedal or is there a switch built already in the tranny?
Allso how about back up lights?
Any toughts?
Thanks

Not totally positive, but I believe that the back-up switch is built into the trans, while the clutch switch is on the pedal.......

A clutch safety switch really doesn't have anything to do with the transmission. There are no provision on the stick shift for such a thing. The clutch safety switch will need to be on the clutch, and go inline with the starter or starter relay to close the circuit and allow power from the key to the starter when the clutch pedal is pressed.

The clutch switch just keeps you from starting the car in gear, otherwise you might run over someone or into something....
