Replacing Key With Toggle Switch

[dustin_j]

My key switch quit working last weekend (now it only works if you get the key at just the right angle) so I was thinking of wiring in a toggle switch instead. What do you guys recommend for toggle switches, or is there a better switch? I'm sure I can figure out how to wire it, but any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dustin

Sooooooo what happens when the toggle switch gets hit when you need the quad running the most? Like going up or down a hill, across a field ..on a track etc? A sudden shut off unexpectedly usually results in a big issue:p

You can a replacement switch and key off ebay for near nothing!
