There are two ways to go, but some cheaper, lighter duty switches may eventually fail
The "low current" way is to pull off the yellow flag / spade "push on" connector at the starter relay, then connect the remote switch to that terminal, and to the large stud on the relay. It will not fire if transmission is in park (auto) or if you have a 70/ later car with clutch siwtch.
The second way, higher current through the remote switch, is to connect the switch to the large starter relay stud, and to the remaining large exposed "square" screw connector on the relay.
Also you can connect the switch directly to the only two terminals on the starter solenoid

sometimes disabled on manual cars
Advance Auto sells a nice push button heavy duty switch. I have two on my firewall for setting valves
Best way to do it on a race car.
Made my own. About $15. One lead goes to black wire on starter relay(finger pic), other to +ve on battery.

No. I circled it on this one picture. If you look you will see on on each side. I think they are 20 amp.
Quick google search and it looks like this but I picked them up at Advance Auto or Autozone.

I’m assuming you wired it to where the NSS still functions to prevent starting in gear when using these right?
No no you got it wrong, I wasn’t questioning you, I was meaning how did you wire it to have that safety function still working.
My apologies for not wording that correctly the first time.
I actually like this so much, I’m considering it I’m mine.
Man I did this so long ago that I can’t remember and my duster is in the trailer for this weekend. I know I have a heavy duty Ford type relay I bought at Napa and jumper it with a test lead when I need it.
Cool no worries. Thanks

Wha...? Uncle Tony uses a screwdriver that he tosses all around the fenders and cowl scratching the paint all over the car and underhood when it falls down the inside of the fender... 
Yeah. The new John Deere tractors have buttons that control the hydraulics mounted outside and it’s the best thing since they invented the steel plow

That's slick having one permenantly mounted in the engine bay. I'm adding that to my list for when I wire my '66. That's an awesome idea for folks with trunk-mounted batteries and non-stock wiring.
