Can you get to the switch at the base of the column? The ignition cylinder should have a rod that runs down the column to the actual ignition switch, you may need to push the rod toward the firewall a little or loosen the bolts and move the switch towards the wheel.

Hopefully you can cut the power to the fuel pump and cluster this way.
