Ignition problems!! HELP PLEASE!

A couple of weeks ago my ignition switch broke so i started my own DIY switch panel. I got everything wired up and working (fan, fuel pump, starter button) except my ignition toggle switch. I dont know how to wire it up 😡 if anyone knows what wires with colors go to what and how to connect them to a 3 prong toggle please let me know.
Thanks in advance

Here, have some wiring diagrams. I pulled the 81-83 diagrams because I assumed you're driving an 81 based on your user name if it's because you were born in 1981 let me know your car's year and engine so I can post the diagrams that match your car.


Engine wiring


Chassis wiring

Where did you get these diagrams? I looked in the FSM for the '85 and it's like reading hieroglyphics. Do you have a simpler one for the '85 GSL?

I gottem from ebscohost, EBSCOhost Login Login is "marshall" and password is "public". The automotive repair reference center or "arrc" is what you're looking for, second down in the first column, it has a decent auto repair database, not AllData, but pretty damn good for free. Anyways incase you can't login or are too lazy here are some more diagrams for an 85 gsl

Engine



Chassis
