<VV> POWERGLIDE CONVERSION wires kinda explained

[N2VZD at aol.com]

it is a touch easier if you have a parts harness. i have done several over  
the years , and added spyder dash
if you study the diagram , you will see the feed wire to backup lights .  
pull that one out of the connecter , add a new pin to the connector. run 
those 2  wires to the backup switch. also basically the same on the neutral 
safety...pull  the connector pit out of the ignition switch (purple wire) put a 
new one in with  about 8 inches of the same gauge wire , hook those 2 wires 
to the neutral safety  switch.  now you have to short the wires under the 
car that used to go to  the backup switch. 
these type of jobs are why i save junk harnesses for connectors and wire. i 
 have several boxes of treasures like this , and a drawer of connectors i 
saved  over the years.  in fact i just put on a tech session on how i do a 
lot of  this stuff along with BASIC electricity...which helps. plus how to 
understand  wire diagrams. 
i may be able to take pictures later to help understand . i will be gone  
most of today though.  i think if you can find a parts junk  PG dash  harness 
(the one with the fuse block included ) it will help you a lot with your  
project. if not maybe someone can help you with the connector housings to 
make  it easier,neater,  (and safer!) to do.i am adding a spyder dash to my 
coupe  as we speak , so i know well what you are up to. my tired ole back is 
slowing me  down a touch though. i just made my own (from scratch) engine 
harness , using  used connectors with a few new pins ( from clark's and NAPA 
BELDEN) , and a new  main body harness using parts from other cars and new 
wires for added options ,  along with a heavier main B+ wire.  saved bucks , 
made it the way i needed  for all my toys. take your time , learn how to check 
ciircuits before putting it  in the car , and you can do it!
i hope this helps..
