To anyone who is going to dis mod please, please take pics of the wiring and do a proper write up. thanx
Frig, sorry, now I feel bad for making this post an "almost-DIY"... and I threw out the instruction sheet I got with it.

Well if you get the button/relay kit from American Customs (yeah it's a little more expensive than just the button and a relay, but I figured that's the price for convenience ), the button and relay come pre-wired.
If I remember correctly, the red wire on the 87 post on the relay is spliced onto the 12V IGN wire, the other red wire (forget which relay post number) goes to the starter side of the starter wire (if you cut it; splice it if you want to keep the START (III) function on the ignition cylinder, and the brown wire goes to ground. There's a big 12mm nut just above the steering column that makes a good ground.
The 12V IGN wire is BLUE on the ignition harness and the starter wire is YELLOW. You can't miss the ignition harness when you take the cover off the steering column because, not surprisingly, they're all HUGE wires
Sorry for the lack of info, Panthro... hope this helps a bit
