Default Glow plug igniter question

Ok I have been flying planes for years, now am also into on road and off road rc. I have a 1/5 scale nitro bike. The engine is mounted on its side but getting to the glow plug is a pain. I have yet to mess around with remote glow plug igniters etc... I went out and bought one for planes but its not going to work because the glow plug is recessed down into the cooling head. I get the idea that the remote glow plug igniter has to have a positive and negative lead. I have a Traxxas ez glow plug lead that will work great but I am unsure on how to wire it. Here is a picture of it. Could someone tell me how I should wire it up. I plan to hook it to the glow plug and maybe solder a end so that it can be disconnected from the field box but leave the glow plug end still connected to the plug.

Thanks for the help...
