I'll second that call for an ignition switch.
The infamous "X" circuit runs right through the switch and when it failed on
me (7 miles from any paved road in AK and well after sunset) I managed to
navigate with
careful use of high-beam flashing and a couple of well
placed honks to warn fauna and friends as I rounded the
bends...pretty hairy.  Had to pay 25 bucks locally to get another.  Should
be much cheaper from list vendors.
