Short answer - I'm not sure you want to.
If you look carefully, you'll note there are FOUR wire pairs to be connected; three are connected in the ON position (L - B/L to the markers; R - Br/L to the main power system; L/Y - L/B to the safety interlocks), and one pair (R - B/L to the markers) in the PARK position.
I see no real problem in simply tying the L/Y - L/B wires together; I don't actually see the point in running the safety interlocks through the key switch. Similarly, I see no issue with tying the L - B/L (markers) together; these are only separated to allow the PARK mode to power the markers independently of main power, but you only have one switch, so PARK mode is gone.
At this point, all that's left is to switch R and Br/L together.
