    Heres a picture for reference. I guess it mounts to studs on the firewall behind the clutch pedal, which explains why i couldnt figure out how to mount it on 95 automatic chassis. I still need a picture from you guys to see exactly how it goes.

      I dont have a picture to show, but the clutch-start safety switch mounts at the floor board in line with the pedal travel, near the foot pad of the pedal itself. If the studs are there, they might be behind the sound insulation. The switch mounts onto the firewall and sits recessed within the insulation.

        There were no studs but there were marks on the firewall where the holes would have been drilled if the car came with a standard transmission. Anyways i got it in today. The pedal travel is decreased with the safety switch in, which could explain why my slave cylinder exploded.

          Looks Right! Kewlz Beanz! Keep in mind now, your whole clutch/ shift action will fell different, but at least you aren't mashing the firewall anymore.
