Find the wire inside the body and install a switch.

Just do the same thing the wrangler guys do you cut the wire going to the doom light fuse and run it to a switch so when they have the doors of they can just flip the switch and good to go.

They also make kits to do the same thing called door jam defeat switch just google it i think the kit is pretty cheap.
