Neutral Safety Switch Hook Hook up

I just got my 95 F150 back after having a C6 installed in favor of the old M5OD and the mechanic neglected to connect the neutral safty switch. Can anyone tell me how or where to connect this ? New Shifter was a B&M Floor unit and I think it needs to some how connect to the clutch saftey switch right ?
Oh, Shifter end has a sort of 2 prong female plug connector hanging down, I assume this will need to be cut off and spliced into clutch switch ?
Thanks, Chet

the neutral safty switch it has to do with starting it in gear and will not allow the truck to be started. it goes around where the kickdown cable is and bolts in with two long small bolts (should be 3/8).

So the neutral safty switch that my aftermarket B&M shifter came with should bolt to the location that you described "goes around where the kickdown cable is and bolts in with two long small bolts (should be 3/8)."
? Will this solve my back up lights not working as well ?

Thanks, Chet
