I have a '98 M6 and want to know where the neutral safety switch is located? I'm pretty sure it's going bad on me and the dealer has them for $9 so I might as well replace it. Thanks.

It appears that automatic cars have a park/neutral position safety switch, and manual cars have a clutch pedal position safety switch instead... If that's what you're asking about, here's how to replace it:
