Do you have a voltmeter? Three wires? I'd think you should only have two unless the separate switches are wired separately. Don't connect the positive supply to the ground terminal or you'll blow the fuse in short order. You should have one wire that has power all the time (+30); connect that to the always-on terminal. You should have one wire that has power every time a door is opened or the console switch is on. Connect that to the switched position of the light. As for the orientation, I can't remember but the lens probably says Hella on it somewhere and you may want to get ultra picky and put that right side up. If not, figure out who is going to use the light switch more often, yourself or people in the back seat, and mount it. Since your car is an S the dome light delay relay under the rear seat may not be working, but us base 900 drivers have survived without it for twenty years.
See if you have twelve volts across the light behind the mirror. If so, the bulb or its contacts are bad. If not. it's in the wiring.
The trunk light only controls itself.
