Dome Light Wiring

Guest

I have spent way more time and money on this than I want to discuss, but I have a question about dome light wiring. My old (broken) dome light had two wires going to it. From what I can tell, one came from the door switches and the other from the console courtesy switch. There are two terminals on the light assembly. I assume, one wire goes to each terminal with ground being achieved by grounding the base of the light assembly (correct?).

Anyway, I bought a new generic assembly from the auto parts store. It has two wires coming into the housing (one hot & one ground). Can I just twist the two feeds from the switches together and attach them to the hot wire on the new assembly or will bad things happen. I'm not as good with circuits as I used to be.
