Need locations to solder wires (tranny)

I need a location I can access the backup lamps, ignition start, "starter relay" (different than ign start?), and 12v in run. The wires are currently on the driver's side dash so two of them are taken care of there.

The backup and "STARTED RELAY COIL" are where I'm stuck. First, why should I have to run a wire to the coil when I already have one wire dedicated to ignition start? Second, where is the easiest place to access this backup lamp wire? Does the wire coming from the AOD already contain this wire? What about any of the other needed wires? My book is useless for this information, as are google and forum searches apparently.

Nevermind on this, I was having a clouded thought process yesterday. These 4 wires are fed through the side of the transmission tunnel into the original 4 pin connector on the AOD. I've got these wires hooked up along with most of the wires I need tapped into at the ECU.
