Update:
Picts of OEM:

glove box removed:


Junction in car:


Shifter nob
front side:


epoxied in place




I went back into town and got the needed supply's.
I got another relay $4.99
A small circuit board $2.99
Some screw down contacts $1.99 for a 4 pack.
Total cost ~$20 (more if you mess up)

It was significantly faster to work with a circuit board then without one.
I soldered the screw contacts to the pins on the relay (with wire):


from the top:


Then I added a termal so that I did not need to splice the ground wires to each other (miss match in size):


Installed and tested:


I put in plugs so that I can put it back to OEM if desired. I can also undo one plug and the car will not start

Thanks Niner for the idea of where to put the switch and how to rig up the wiring It helps me to be able to bounce ideas off people.
