If you still have your D series take the reverse light switch from there.

Just unscrew the reverse light switch and splice the wires longer and scavenge a pigtail from the junkyard or use quick disconnect male female terminals. The wires go either way they just complete a circuit. use a jumper and jump those two wires with the car off then put it in the on position and check the lights. -ejoner

u know i had the same problem on my b16 swap the person that did my swap didnt hook up the reverse lights cause it was an auto to manual swap... so what i done was just run me a toggle switch and wire both my reverse bulbs up like they were fog lights (tied both my grounds together and both positives together) hooked the positive up to my ignition or switched 12V power (that way whenever the cars off if i accidently forget to turn the switch off the lights wont burn) and then i just hooked the ground wire to the toggle switch and got it from there.. heres the way i can explain cause i got tired of trying to find out what wire went where to. and i didnt wanna get my *** rearended.


sorry for the shitty pic but it will make u understand what i done.. OH and dont forget to fuse to just incase..

i dont want to ask how u turn on ur car... LOL but damn thats a raw *** idea but i know i can fix it .. i know im gettin juice from the cable with the grey clip... but when i try to check if i get circular juice from the cable that goes to the tranny i dont get any ... not even when the car is on and on reverse... can it be te sensor thing?? only one way to find out i guess.
