Longacre Ignition Switch - how to wire up?

[steyning]

Hi - I have purchased a second hand Longacre Ignition Switch Panel, (item 2 on page 257 of 2008 DTweeks catalogue). It consists of a heavy duty, on/off toggle switch with safety flip up cover and two rear terminals, and a starter button, also with two terminals. One of the button terminals is linked by short black cable to one of the switch terminals.This then extends away from the switch on a yellow wire, to a 3-way multi-socket. The other button terminal has a separate green wire running to the 3 way socket, whilst the remaining other switch terminal has a dark brown wire running to the third part of the multi-connector. To which cables (colour identification) do I connect the Longacre green, Yellow and dark brown in the Rover K series (1996 Reg) ignition harness to replace the ignition key as a starter to fire up the car for competition use next season?

Brown = Power, yellow = Ignition, Green = Starter
