Mechanical dude, hating wires.. needs help. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Hey guys, my car came with a start engine button already being installed. I now would like to get rid of the actual steering column lock / key assembly... by leaving the plastic ignition switch piece always in ON position behind the dash but using toggle switches instead to cut the connections to fuel pump and co.... (in case I ever wanted to rebuild to original)

Attached is a picture of the wires I see going into the switch. It’s a total of 7 wires going into 6 contacts on the ignition switch. The two black wires got to the same contact in the switch. All others have a separate pin to go.

I know this must be extremely easy to brake this up with 2 or three toggle switches but my brain is not having it right now...

Your help is highly appreciated.

I will send pics of the switches once installed.

1972 914. 1.7l fuel pump relocated to the front. Fuel pump kicks in as soon ignition is ON, Start engine button installed by previous owner.

Thanks guys
