Changing Electric start to two kill buttons

Topic says it all. How do I get rid of the bulky estart/headlight/turn signal unit switch and replace it with a kill button and an Estart button. I bought two Yamaha style kill switches. I wanna put a kill button on the left side and a kill button on the right side (this will be used for the Estart button). I understand that I will lose the high/low switch for the headlight. I dont care about that.
Hope someone can shed some light. Thanks
 
Engine kill: Yellow/White wire is connected to Yellow/Green wire via your new button.

Engine start: Black/White wire is connected to Red wire via your new button.

This is based on the wire colours in the multi-function switch harness (at the connector socket). I assume you'll connect to these wires.

The chassis wiring plug has the identical colours. (edit: I checked to be sure)

Above info based on 2011 250XC with estart.

Thanks Neil!! Hey maybe you can help me out of another jam? Do you know the stock shock clicker settings (or ballpark) on the 2011's? I changed my rear spring and messed up the setting.
 
No idea on the suspension (I haven't looked at mine yet). The snow has only just melted here. Trails won't open for another 4-6 weeks. Are the specs somewhere in the owner's manual?
