Default Ignition wires

I have searched but not getting a clear answer. The key cylinder on my project drag car decided to lock up on me. Since its my race car and not my dd i want to go ahead and install a toggle switch for the ignition and a push button start. At the the end of the key cylinder there is 5 wires. I know the black with white stripe is the starter wire and the yellow with black stripe is the ignition wire but what are the rest of the wires for? What wires need to be used when using a toggle switch for the ignition?
