most vehicles used an "inertia switch" to shut off the pump in the case of a wreck, so it would probably be easiest to find this switch, cut one of its wires, and wire the 2 ends of what you just cut into your switch. its probably up under the dashboard, but i haven't checked for your model. it should even be listed in the owners manual, or someone here will know.

in my opinion this would be much easier than dealing with the ground, and more reliable
