Is the armoured cable that connects the ignition switch to the bottom of the original coil intact? As you have another coil, the Bosch Blue, that might not be the case. The armoured cable only has the red positive wire inside and the negative is the one that goes from the original coil to the distributor. Ron's diagrams should sort you out, but you need to choose which coil to use. There might be nothing wrong with the original and although the armour maybe damaged at the switch end, not uncommon, can still be used if wired correctly. Push button start is good. My current wagon came with the button in the cigarette lighter position, but my last 4 door had it tucked away on the underside of the dash, in the lip, more discreet there.
