Did clutch stop mod and ran into problem....

I have this wire that came off the plastic piece while I was doing my clutch stop yesterday and I can't find where it goes back, anybody know? The instructions I followed never showed this wire and where it goes.

Will your engine start?

Take look at the clutch lever, and see if it's connected to the cut off switch.
It's the switch that the allows the engine to start once you've pressed the clutch pedal in. Maybe it came off from there.

Shortens the clutch pedal travel distance, since the clutch is fully engaged an inch or two before the clutch pedal actually reaches the stock stop point (I.e., the floor).

Pulled it down and no speaker... I tried to get up near the steering rack and I didnt see anything. Im thinking its just a neutral line. I dont have premium pack.

Must be since it's in the same location and looks exactly like the wire in the pic. Makes sense that it's just pre-wired for the premium pack.

How's the clutch stop feel? Which one did you get?

Its alright, Gotta get used to used it for a week or two. Alot of people said that its a great mod, I don't believe them, however now I can relax in my chair. I got it off ebay and Im currently using a UUC SSK. I think the SSK is killing everything!! I think its time to install my BMW SSK thats been sitting in my closet collecting dust.
