Looking at the wiring diagram, I'd suggest forming the loop in a wire from the starter to the ignition switch, with a second wire from the dash lamp switch to the same terminal of the ignition.
(the feed to the dash lamps stays live)
If you already have three wires, it may be preferable to remove the one from the dash lamp switch and take the wire from the starter (via an inline fuse) through the loop and onto the terminal of the dash lamp switch and take the wire from the ignition to the same terminal (if it is fat enoughtotake both wires!). That way you have the connection via a solid screw terminal, rather than joining three wires that could separate and cause a short! Plus it saves disturbing the ignition switch.
