Coil Splitting a Cool Rails in a jag

I want to coil split my cool rails single coil humbucker in my jags bridge position, with a little switchy that I'll probably fit in between the volume and tone knob.
I've previously taped off 2 of the remaining wires that I guess are now needed, can't remember the colours.
Do I just need any old regular on/on switch, and where should I locate the remaining wires etc..
Sorry, I'm terrible when it comes wiring !!
cheers in advance.

Also could I snip away and solders the wires to the bass cut switch instead ? Would that be possible ?
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

Thanks for that... some reason I'd rather avoid push pull...
I wondered whether this is what I was after

I purchased a decent enough on/on switch and I went with the above diagram.
The single coil sounds pretty decent actually !!!
Now I know I'm happy with the sound, I'm gonna drill a hole and place the switch in between the Volume and Tone.

For anyone who really cares... Thought I'd post a pic for future reference.
Can also do an demo for anyone who would like to hear it.
