I have a 1996 that has been upgraded with a 3.2 engine and 6-Speed trans. THe previous owner did not bother to get reverse lockout working. I have read several older threads on re-enabling reverse lockout on a 6-Speed upgrade, but before I go cutting into wires, I wanted to see if any of you with much more expertise than I could double check my plans.
My understanding of the brake tap fix:
I bought this Borg Warner relay:

And the I believe I need to mount it near the intake, run a wire from the 87a prong down to one of the 2 yellow wires coming out of this solenoid, and ground the other yellow wire to chassis. I take it I can just cut them off a few inches from solenoid and they no longer need to attach to ECM or wherever they are currently going?:

Then I need to put a vampire tap on this green wire that is running from the engine compartment into the trunk lid and attach the tap wire to prong 86 on the relay:

Then all that should be remaining is to run a wire from relay prong 85 to chassis for ground and a 30A feed (that is only hot with accessory on) from the fuse box to the 30A prong on relay.
Is this accurate?
