pretty sure you'll have to get the 5-speed transmission harness to get everything like reverse lights and whatnot to work. i know i did on my 95 when i did the swap. couldn't say for sure though on the fox body

The 86 harness should work. I believe any fox T5 harness (79 - 93) will work. I am waiting on a harness I ordered for my swap.
I also think you can cut the AOD harness and solder to the manual reverse light switch. The neutral switch can just be jumpered.
