Neutral/Backup Switch Locations

Hello everyone! I'm just about done installing the wiring harness and was wondering if there is a neutral safety switch (NSS) and a backup switch. Since it's a manual shift I'm thinking the NSS is or could be used as the clutch pedal is pressed? As far as the reverse light switch I'm thinking I'll have to mount it on the trans in a way that the switch would be depressed by the linkage when it's put in reverse.....any pointers?
