There you go man. There is a switch that is supposed to be installed that does this very thing. You also should have a neutral safety switch. If you don't have one of those, get one right away.

Well if the switches are there, then it's just a matter of wiring them up correctly. The switches should be mounted right on the shifter. Can't tell you exactly where since I don't have any experience with that exact shifter, but they are pretty easy to spot on my Megashifter, I would imagine it's the same on yours.

I would jump on Hurst's web site and download the PDF instructions that are on there.
