But when the switch is pressed, it will feed +12v into the 211's 87a grounded terminal and fry it, correct?
100% correctomundo. Howie's way won't work with your present type switch. That's why I suggested the relay solution. It works with the present, already installed switch.

And here's a much simpler method using your switch and no relays.
I just looked at the install instructions and it has built in relays so:-
I thought of your way too, Howie. His dash switch is N.O. so he CAN'T use "his switch" with the HV211 internal relays. Rather than go into all that, and him having to find and install a different dash switch, I made it work with what he already has. One can source and put relays anywhere. So "my way" is simpler. Because he doesn't have to find and install a N.C. switch.
Thank you both so much. I will use the relay method. The switch I'm using is one of about 20 Carling laser etched switches that all match each other, so I'd really like to keep them all the same!

Fair enough,it just seemed silly to add relays to an existing unit WITH relays.
I should have thought it through more.
