Im not real sure but i think you could try hooking it up to a rocker switch, just go to radio shack and get one for a few bucks to test out.

I'd try and contact DMH and see if you can just buy one. You'll also need the wiring from the cutout to the switch if you don't have it. It's probably a "momentary" switch - spring loaded and reverses power depending on which side you press - like a convertible top switch. Once you plug the swtich harness into the wiring, all you need is a switched source for power, and a good ground. Hope this helps...
