For a 6.9 glow plug system, all you need to do is pull the pink wire off the relay on the fender wheel well plate, and connect a push button controlled wire to the relay in its place. If you are trying to do a push button for a 7.3 system, I'd strongly urge you to avoid it, as the 7.3 system is excellent, and a push button is just admitting failure as a technician. :dunno

Run a wire from the + side of the battery to one of the posts on the push button, then connect a wire to the other post on the push button and run it to the purple wire on the relay.

I used an ignition push button for mine.

I love manual GP's because the controllers are so friggin expensive...I haven't burned out one GP in over a year and the truck will start with a very short GP cycle.
