I've got exactly the same problem!!
two wires hanging from my gearbox, and no reverse lights.
Thing is my car was factory Auto. When some little japanese kid converted it to manual, he didn't connect up the reverse lights.
You need to track the lights down from the rear - pull some stuff off and find the colour of the wires from the reverse lights, then try and find them again in the front of the car. (or look in a manual). Then you'll need to connect one of the wires from your gearbox to earth and the other to the earth of the reverse lights (or is it positive?).
Then when the stick is in reverse the lights will light up.
If you want, we can organise a weekend and track it down in both our cars together.
