Fitting switch blade killerswitch

It comes with a pair of piggyback crimp terminals. You will need at least a pair of pliers.

 

Strip the wires, insert the stripped ends into the crimp terminals and crimp them closed tightly. Remove the spades from your coil pack (shown in your picture) and fit the killswitch spades in their place, put the coil spades back onto the piggyback terminals. Voila.

Hopefully this picture will help. As suggested above, the wires need to be connected directly across the existing red kill button, or coil.

This is my preferred 'soldered' method.

The piggy back crimps are another option, but they take up a lot of space inside the side casing and are one extra connection in the system that could potentially fail.

Hope this helps

Have anyone used the km kill switch, are they any good

All my cars have km switches and they all work spot on :)

Yes, but as said above trim the exposed ends down, you don't want them shorting together.

It's a little strange that your original wires are soldered at the switch to be honest. In most cases they connect via 90deg crimp connectors..

 

I think it's KM ones that are soldered, my last one came all soldered up like that as well.
