You can use both if you would like the button, Just wire you ground wire threw your wot switch threw your button, your wot switch will not work unless you have the button pushed and your button will only work if your at wot. or you can go one step further , by wiring them into a DPDT switch , so if you just want to use the wot switch and not the button just flip the switch and it will bypass the button and only use the wot switch. Thats how i have mine

that was an option i was thinking about doing is using both the WOT and the button to complete the ground circuit. i will probably do both. i am gonna wire the solonoids to go hot all the time with inline fuse and use the window switch to activate the relay which grounds everything through a closed WOT and closed button circuit. i dont see any problems with that.(thats actually how i learned to complete circuits from Nissan school).
anyway whats a DPDT switch?
