I am installing a 350hv on my truck. I'd like to use the instant trigger (-) Zone 1 input for my hood and toolbox if possible. Below is what I think the wiring should be, is that correct?

Sorry should have included this in the previous post...The magnet will be next to the switch while the hood/toolbox is closed it would be in the N/O position (not pictured) and then when it is pulled away I was thinking it would go to the N/C (above). Is there a better way to do this? I am somewhat worried that the magnet/switch will lose their polarity over time.
