You really don't need a connector for the reverse switch..

When I bought the TGP from Kenny, the reverse lights didn't work, and that was because they were not connected to the 282, but rather still connected to the PRND switch. I found out by looking at some schematics the color of the wire that triggered the reverse lights at that switch. I cut the wire, attached it to one wire of the 282, and to the other wire on the 282, +12V. This way when the switch in the transmission is closed (ie. in reverse) the reverse lights work!

 

Also, if you plan on your stock trunk release to work, then you need to find the trunk release wire at the PRND switch and ground it, other wise it won't work.

i am not worried about the trunk release right now. I would like to use the stock connectors fot the reverse and the VSS. It looks to be the same connectors they still use the 282 in the newer 5 spd. I am going to try and look up serviceable part numbers.
