It's one wire, to the ebrake switch at the base of the handle... Not that rough.

edit, sorry, you mean the entire switch, I thought you meant the wiring.

ok, the wire has a flat piece of metal with a hole through it. does this go on the bottom of the bracket? under it or on top of it?
i can't figure out the mechanics behind how that would work though. like how pushing down on it would close any type of circuit

Damn, ok. Hook it up so that the e brake handle pushes down on the switch when it is lifted. In the picture, you see that tab sticking out the side of the base of the handle? That's what hits the switch. It mounts exactly as shown. A circuit is closed when you lift the handle because it connects the single wire to ground. Real easy. How bad is the situation in your car anyways??!!
