Default Stick to auto questions

Hello boys and girls. I have just joined the forums. I joined because i seem to be the only person on the internet to be switching from a 5 speed to an auto tranny. So, i have a few questions. But for starters. i have 2 plugs on the ummmm left side of the "hump" one is round like a ummm alt plug with 2 prongs. and the other is round {tubular} shaped with i think 2 prongs. i have no idea where they go. or what they are for.
This is an on going project. i started it when i was working on the road. so now as i have more time. i have been working on it again. tranny is 95% in. just missing a few things. IE these 2 plugs. please help if you can. Thanks

I have to ask, why are you going from Manual to Auto?

well.......i have a bad knee and the super stiff clutch i had SUCKed in traffic. I have it set up with a 3k stall and a reverse/manual valve body. so it should still be fun. but yes most go the other way. which is why im having so much of a hard time figuring where things go. however, my shifter has a safety switch and the plugs. so now all i have to figure out is back-up lights. Oh and sorry for the delayed response, but i work 2 jobs.

he had a tko when it was just a little blown 327, making about 505 rear wheel though

go to the junkyard and get the factory jumper plug for an auto car and plug it into the harness for the clutch switch...then just unbolt the clutch pedal

then you wont have to take the dash all apart switching pedals around
