'Clicky Starter Kit' 'Need To Confirm Solenoid Trigger Wire?

I'll be fitting a Clicky Starter Kit next week, and I've been cleaning up the solenoid area beforehand.
All the installation pics I've seen online, show the starter solenoid with just one wire connected at the bottom and the top spade unused?
I have 2 thin wires connected to the 2 spades top and bottom, I assume the bottom yellow/black one is the ignition 'trigger' and still the correct one to swap out?
Thanks in advance!

Because yours is a 410 there is a bypass circuit that gives the coil 12v when it is starting for a bigger spark.
That's what the extra terminal is for. Normally the coil power comes via the ballast resistor which reduces it to 9v.
Still though, use the bottom terminal for the clicky starter
