The only tech article I'm aware of is a manual (6spd) conversion for a tt. Hopefully it has some info that can help you:
MKIV.COM

When you're done, hopefully you can post some of the stuff that you learn!

I doubt the auto (PRND2L) dash lights are relevant after a manual swap, since I don't see them at all on my 6spd tt dash. However, you are breaking some new ground here, so I couldn't even say that for sure. About the only other possibly-relevant piece of info I have is that a lot of guys with aftermarket heavy-pedal-pressure clutches completely disable the clutch-depressed no-start switch, because keeping the havy-pedal-pressure clutch depressed while starting has proven to wear out the thrust bearings in the engine. In other words, you should be able to completely bypass the no-start clutch-depressed signal to your ecu (assuming you've already swapped to a manual ecu - right?)...
