PIAA to KC Switch?
This may be stupid - but I dont want to try it without knowing first...
Is there a way to change the push button switch that comes with PIAA Lights to a Toggle switch much like the one that KC Lights come with? If so, could someone explain how it would be done? Thanks so much!

Yup, I did this. I hated the PIAA switch. For such a good quality light, their corded switch looks like crap.
Here's a link to my thread on it.

DK the switch itself will actually have numbers on it, or actual + - Since you're not using the same switch as I did, I don't want to tell you what goes where. I'd rather nobody else get a mini-electrical fire going like I did via trial and error. If your switch has numbers as mine did, then you most likely would be safe wiring it the same way.
Just make sure you don't install the switch totally and run the wires to it and test before doing the final mounting, that way if there is a problem (ie fire) you can contain it and stop it very easily. I'd have been screwed if I'd had mine mounted in the dash and then tested it.
