97 TJ clutch interlock question

Hey guys, I have a 97 TJ, 2.5 4cyl, 5spd. I want to overide the clutch interlock so I can start w/o pressing in the clutch. I dont have the owners manual as it did not come with one from the shop i bought her at. Dose anyone have any input on how I override this. Thanks for the help.

You have to switch a wire above the clutch pedal from the receptacle its plugged into to another matching receptacle that is right near it. Its hard for me to explain without pictures or anything sorry. Just do a search, I am almost positive there are pictures of the process on here some where.
