The park switch is usually in the gear selector so theres two bigger wires going to it that can be bridged. Im not familiar with the e7 auto wiring but theres often an extension cable running down to the shifter. So you may be able to unplug it up by the heater fan or behind steering column and bridge it there.

From memory the reverse light wiring on the manual connects to engine bay loom near top of gearbox tunnel on firewall. If i remember ill go check my coupe and confirm.

Sorry can’t help, about to do the swap myself for the first time.

Was hoping you could post some photos if you took any on the swap. I would highly appreciate it.

Thanks BOBLOOK I appreciate the help the black and white are for the neutral the only other two wires left from the gear selector switch is a blue wire and a red wire I’m assuming that is for the reverse lights I’ll wait till someone can check a diagram or that has done it before I connect those two to the reverse sensor ……. I’m horrible at electrical sorry

I found it on another diagram you correct Blue and red and red and black to the manual backup light switch.

You can bridge the two wires the light should turn on.
