if you want the wiring to look perfect, the best way to go would be to get the interior wiring harness from a junkyard.

key word: 'rental'

disable the air bags and AIM for the damn deer.

and then file suit when the airbags dont go off.

well, you said yourself the wiring is different... so yes, it is. auto have the wires for the shifter, and manual don't.

are you not able to take the key out now?

you can do one of two things if so

1. Take out the locking pin in the ignition console this is what I did instead of option #2

2. ground the park wire so the car will always "think" its in park so you may remove the key

Option 1 is the best so just in case you swap ECU's you can still remove the key
