Something else I did to save weight and keep things clean: I purchased the tool that crimps on servo plugs. All the electronics on my car have the wires cut to the proper length.

On my voltage regulator it was easier to cut off the shrink wrap the covers the voltage regulator. I unsoldered all the wires from the PC board and then cut them to length. Then I resoldered the wires and reshrunk the PC board. That all saves some weight, and makes the wiring a lot cleaner. If I ever want to eliminate the switch all I have to do is solder a jumper wire onto the PC board in place of the switch.
