You want the circuit opening relay under the dash. It's a black relay with a yellow 6-pin plug mounting close to the steering column. There are five wires, you want the middle one on its own, it's black with a white stripe. Cut it and extend the wires to the switches location. The plastic panel under the steering wheel with the little vent is an ideal location.

Ok I hope that works. and to put a toggle switch with an LED on it in all you have to go is run a ground. And the picture pretty much says it all, but the fuel cut switch goes in the wire with the blue clip on it. Also use those blue clips they are much easier, you don't have to splise the wire at all.

Don't use those connectors, they're not reliable enough for things like fuel pumps. Besides, you're not supposed to be splicing into wires, you're joining two wires together. If you can't solder, use proper crimp connectors. They're just as easy to use but give a more secure connection.

I've never had any probalems with the conectors they are all threw my stereo, and everything else that I haqve wired up. And there is still no problem. And it would have been hard to solder somthing under the dash. There is not enough room.
