Light switch mod help

I'm trying to figure out how to re wire my stock light and headlight switch to a simple on/off switch from radio shack, I am in chaos trying to figure out which wires to splice together. HELP

I think it is best for you to remain this way. There may be a future owner of your vehicle who looks at your handiwork and thinks, "WTF". Just imagine his chaos.

I agree with master Benzer, BobTerry 99.
However a switch added to the primary line in could be added.
Having purchased vehicles from creative thinkers, an auction find (The Queens 85 Princess ) had several strange wiring adaptions in and around the air conditioning and internal stereo, video system. A cobra replica with several "master switches" also proved nightmarish!
Good luck with your dream.
