Starter relay wiring?

I am trying to wire up a push start button and a starter relay on my custom built softail.  It never had a relay and only uses a solenoid button to start it now. But to get my acrs to work on my new s&s motor I would like to go with this setup. Can anyone tell me what the factory starter relay wires go to besides ground and the starter?

Also on the start button I have the same question.  It's a two wire button that will go on my motor mount under the tank.  Where should those wires connect to.  My bike uses a regular dash and key switch. Thanks in advance.

Switched power goes to one side of the button the other goes to the relay This triggers the relay. 
The relay switches direct battery power to the spade connector on the starter to activate the starter.
How the ACRs get triggered is shown in the S&S instructions

  Bosch type 5 pin relay:

Pin 85=from starter switch

Pin 86=to ground

Pin 30=power from main breaker

Pin 87=power out to solenoid
