Most of the wiring your talking about will be on the standard wiring diagram in the Bently manual If you don't get a Bently theres several good sites with color diagrams. The Autostick will have the extra wiring from the shifter to the vacuum control, a three prong plug that goes to the nose cone for the neutral safety switch, and I believe a single wire going down by the ATF hoses on the tranny for the ATF pressure switch. You can find a Autostick supplimental diagram on the web also Search for the Automatic Registry I think its www.vwar.com

You can get the diagrams here: http://66.34.72.138/wiring/

The 1970-1971 Supplement is there as well for the autostick portion.

I believe that is the neutral saftey switch. It's keeps you from starting the engine if the trans is in gear. The switch is located on the transmission.

I think they are the relays and sensor for the ATF temp and level. That is a guess though.
