In my OP: As far as the shown switch goes, you would rather glue that ugly switch somewhere over drilling a small hole on the drivers side seat riser (which is were many put it)? A momentary switch would only stick out about 1/2-5/8". Those wires might be fine for 12 volts, but might be too light for 6. You are going to have a good amount of current flowing to the magnet in the solenoid which is why 6 volt wires are larger then 12. Do you have a number on the switch at Lang's? The original ignition switch on the panel is just a simple on/off/on.
