auto dim mirror with compass

I have a 92 xj lareado with ohc temp and comp. I also just scored a self dimming mirror from a tahoe with compass in it, does anyone know what the 3 wires on the mirror go to? And can I hookit up to the wiring on my ohc
 
look at the back of the mirror. look up the brand name(probably gentex) and the mirror model number. I put one in my 89 but cannot remember what wire went where. Mine is auto dim, temp, and compass though so I probably had more wires(because of the temp sensor)....

I pulled out the middle three pins because we obviously don't have autodim side mirrors and I didn't care about it undimming in reverse because I don't look at my RVM in reverse. Hope this helps you out, if its a different model mirror just search for a wiring diagram.
