Pictures of what??? Im confused with your whole post. If you DD it put the kill switch inside the trunk or if you want it on the outside but hidden be creative and put it somewhere in the bumper but hide it behind a door you fabbed up. Otherwise do something like the Picture you posted in the first place

Do it like above and just bypass the switch while driving it. Then wire it back .
