I mounted mine on the side of the console, just in front of the driver's seat. No one notices it, it's easy to reach, and it's not in the way of my leg hitting it. When I ran my wires through the firewall I removed the big black connector and just shoved the wire terminals through a small hole in the grommet behind the PCM. Remember where the wires go in the connector.

I figured traction control just didn't come on manuals.......oh well.
Just some more info on that, in 1995 Traction Control became an option on the Trans Am M6, I believe I read it was the first manual car to be offered with traction control... I could be wrong on that however.

I have one of the earlier '98 V8's. I don't have Taction Control. I guess there can be an exception to every rule.

Radio Shack. They're wired in such a way that the Green LED comes on when the fans are in Low Position (whether the fans are ON in Low due to computer turning on or manual ON), and the Red comes on with HI Position in the same manner.

Next question you're gonna ask is how they're wired - to be honest, don't remember - there was a write-up on how to do this either here or on LS1.com quite some time ago...
