Question Apexi Accel controller reverse gear harness

So as the title says, have any of you actually installed your reverse gear harness on the Apexi unit?

from the reviews it seems like most don't bother with this step but I wanted to see if anyone has actually done it.

If someone has then where do I even locate the reverse lamo signal wire? basically the wire that's connected to the reverse light in the back?

So do you usually manually disable or go back to stock when you reverse? or do you keep it on but step less on the pedal?

and is it really that sensitive if its on when reversing? or do I have to step on it retartedly hard to do something silly?

Leave it on, it makes no difference.

i hardly even use my apexi controller. Most of the time I forget I have it installed lol. But yeah unless you floor it, it doesnt make much of a difference.
