I would go with a switch and the Negative cable is a good spot or it.
I've seen a lot of argument on negative or positive. but I favor Negative.
On many RV's there are multiple POSITIVE wires is one reason
Another is if you are removing the battery and start with the POSITIVE lead.. if the swich is off and the wrench slips. No harm done
But if the switch is in the positive you can end up with a nasty burn and a melted wrench and worse.
