Default installing starter button, toggle

i want to install a toggle switch with positions for off run and start, to bypass the ignition switch from the bottom of the steering column, ive gone through three of these and they keep fuking up on me. also i want a separate switch for accessory power. does anyone have a wiring schematic for the wires to the ignition switch on the column?

Under the drivers dash just foward of the steering column, find a bundle with #10 and #12 wires in it.

Red - Hot 12v supply
Pink - ignition 1 (engine/PCM/fuel pump etc)
Orange - ignition 2 ( HVAC)
Bwn - Accessory (windows/radio)
Yellow or purple - starter

Don't forget that you will have to bypass the VATS system if you want to start the car without the key.
