Ignition panel instal

Hi guys, I'm new to this forum and to the automotive world.
I'm not sure if this is the right area to write this thread but here goes.
I recently bought a car that is going to be my new toy for going around tracks and have decided to buy a ignition switch panel to replace the standard ignition barrel. I'm not fussed about not having a key as the car is stored in a secure and locked unit anyway.
When I received the panel, I found out that installing it is harder than what I thought. This is because I am new to this whole subject in general and that it did not include any instructions. I will attached some pictures of the panel and the switches as a reply because they won't upload.
I put some connectors on the terminals to express where they are on the two main switches (ignition and push button start). The colors of the connectors do not mean anything and the other two accessory switches I'm not bothered about at the moments. The panel included a relay and three different wires, I believe they are different gages but I could be wrong.
I am not sure on where all the wires go and how and where the relay is installed within the circuit.
Any information and advise would be very helpful because I am stuck and cannot find any information on the internet on how to install this switch panel
Thanks

You cannot attach images to posts in this forum. You need to upload the images to a photo sharing website (there are several free sites available), then link to them here.

What vehicle are you installing this panel in to?

Re: Ignition panel instal

Ah right ok sorry. I just followed the introduction video. Thanks for letting me know.

And it is a custom built kit car chassis and the engine I've got to get me started is a ford 2.9 efi v6 from a Sierra I believe. Not 100% sure if that is where the engine came from.
