Help needed with ignition wiring

Goodday to all, i have an 1981 280e w123, that i recently aquired. The PO for some reason unknown to me removed the original transistorized distributor together with the ICU, coil resistors and coil. Instead he retrofitted a ordanary pionts and condenser distributor and coil, with 1 resistor.

i have an working ICU and transistorized distrubutor with the correct coil and 2 ignition resistors....But the wiring are totally hacked by the PO

i need help wiring the ignition control unit, i know that the green wire from the distrubutor goes to the ICU but on the ICU there is a plug with 4 wires i need to know where this wires must go.

I also need to know how to wire the resistirs, i assume that the wire from the soleniod on the starter goes to one resistor(which one?) and swithed 12volt from the ignition key goes to the other resistor?? and from there i dont know???

please help???
