No you can't connect it to the key switch wires. That requires a normally open. The ProDesign is a normally closed switch.

You find the 12v wire leading to the ignition coil. Trim back a 1/4 section of the insulation somewhere on the wire. Do not cut the wire.

Solder plunger side wire from the kill switch to the 12v coil wire. Wrap new connection with electrical tape.

Attach the wire coming from the kill switch base to chassis ground. I like to crimp/solder it to an "O" style connector then use a chassis bolt to ground it.

Make sure you attach it to the bars first then run the wires. Can be a pain to snake the switch through everything to get back up to the bars if you don't.

Hope that helps.
