I had the exact same setup in my car. What I did is bought another micro switch just like the neutral safety switch and mounted it on the opposite side of the plastic slide that turns the neutral safety switch on and off. Then I modified the plastic slide so that it would make the switch in first gear but as the slide moved to second and third it would not make the switch operate. It took some epoxy and sanding but in the end it was a problem free mechanism.
I upgraded to a playback tach that did not need the extra switch anymore otherwise I would take a picture for you.
Thanks

Chad
