Well, in response to #3, the bare minimum would be to wire the solenoid up to a source that is energized with the key in 'on' position. If I were you I'd use a relay energized by an existing switched circuit to switch the power to the solenoid, I'm not sure how much current that draws but may be enough that if you piggybacked it onto an existing fused circuit you'd be blowing fuses. As for the other questions, I'm a bit out of my depth, but I am sure you could use a 240 o/d wiring harness & relay, as I recall it's pretty well independant of the rest of the wiring harness & it gets you around trying to tie into the sockets in the existing fuse/relay panel.
