Thanks man im a little confused it looks like i have no need for the top and lower plug

the brown plug gose to the auto trans which i dont need
and the grey plug goes to the trans too
any imput

do we need the clutch n/p relay?
will deleting the a/t control unit stuff affect my car drivability? it has a neutral swith wrie coming from it
also i deleted a 10amp fuse wire by accident its above the fuse for the fuel pump but i dont think its needed since it was for the ka egr

Any imput guys thanks!
