Okay, I just looked over Jeremy's '68 auto-to-manual conversion and he simply tied the green wire to the blue wire. Or, take the green wire off terminal 87 (not 30/51 like the Amazon) and take off the blue wire hooked to terminal 30/51 and tie them together. That'll by-pass the ignition lock-out.

I asked Jeremy what he does about reverse lights and he replied, "I just smile and wave...I'll have to figure that out later."
Funny, I didn't see a reverse light relay in that engine bay.

My Momma's '69 manual has a reverse light relay.
Somethin' wierd (wired) about the autos?
Best,
Shayne.
