my key cylinder on the colum of my 93 YJ is going bad. it doesn't like to turn any more, so I'm thinking of going to toggel switches, and a push button for the starter.
the wiring looks simple enough, I can pull the two connectors out of the ignition switch that is under the dash, and the wires will reach to where I want to mount the switches. however, I'm wandering weather it would be better to run relays, or just get some high amp switches?

oh, and regardless of weather I run relays or not, would it be better to have multiple switches(like one for ignition, one for accesories, etc..) or just one switch for everything?

thanks,

I ran accessories & lights with relays on seperate switch from engine operations but no it can run through one (overkill 30A) switch . Electric fans & lights (high current draws) run from relays . Tried drawing 30A through a 30A switch and it does get hot . I changed all inside & tail lights to high intensity LED's to reduce current draw
