I did exactly the same thing on my 122S. You will find a terminal on the back of the ignition switch, outside the armored cable, that is "hot" in both the RUN and START positions. That goes to the (+) side of the blue coil. The wire from the exposed terminal of the original coil goes to the (-) side of the blue coil.

On mine, I simply left the old coil in place and mounted the blue coil near it. If anything ever went wrong with the blue coil, I could always reconnect the original and keep driving.
