bad wiring

I have just bought a 1980 bronco that has been abused and poorly maintained. None of the lights were working and I have traced no turn signals and brake lights to the signal switch. My question is does anyone know how re wire not using the switch in the column but an extrenal switch instead, abandoing the old one and wires? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, WIT

Thumbs up

That would be way too complicated. I would suggest getting a universal harness from painless wiring and just do it the right way.
