and how to place it.

The thread(s) were and are still AOK and valid.

Good luck,

Fritz.
The thread mentioned does cover the basics on how to do it without modifying the electronics at all.

What I did is a bit more permanent, stable and admittedly most likely overly complex.
  1. Remove switches and servo connection hardware completely
  2. Attach external switch to sensor channel A's "on" circuit
  3. Hotwire sensor channel B's circuit closed permanently (which, incidentally, is is 'off' rather than 'on' in a 'turning the power on or off' context)
  4. Package the PCB into a plastic enclosure



Note: "Sensor Channel A/B" is just what I am calling them. There are two circuits whose statuses have to toggle in order for the PCB to send the required waveform/pulse to the BCM to enable the ignition.
