Myself, I do away with all the starter switches since I own six Samurai's and want more. I have a floor switch that is in a lock combo vault that kills the engine, and is in a stainless steel tube under the bucket so no one else can start it less they know the combination. Then I go to a start switch and turning that on and hitting the button starts my jeeps. Turning off the start switch kills the engine while the security switch is between the shifters in the lock combination box. This is not the only security there is a weight switch in the driver seat that you have to weigh as much as I do or it won't start, and two other dead switches you need to know where they are before the Jeep will start.
In the mean time, your kill wire is broken under your dash somewhere. Each time you put a new starter on it, and plug it into the wire harness you still have not fixed the kill wire on the other side of the plug.

With an 87 you have round vents the center dead spot all you need to do is put in a key kill switch that leads to your battery, then when you want to turn off the jeep kill it by the turning off the kill switch and leave the key in or take it out. Mounting it, you should use a large washer to cover that blank vent area and then another behind it so that you can screw the kill switch through it securely.
Myself, I just don't like keys! And the fact that having six Samurai jeeps trying to figure out what key goes to what jeep is hard enough, but to have a kill switch located on the dash center area, when four wheeling, and you NEED to kill the jeep its really hard to reach down and turn the key off, just hit the rocker cover over the switch and the jeep is shut off faster and safer then turning the key off. For me, and all my girlfriends that drive the other jeeps its quick to start and shut off.

It's located below the glove box and is held in place by 4 screws. We just finished changing ours and discovered afterthe fact that you probably don't need to remove the glove box to access it. It's in a very tight space.
