Default Aftermarket sunroof

I own a 91' Honda Accord with a large aftermarket sunroof. After purchasing a new part containing a new cruise control button (which then fixed my cruise control) and a stock sunroof switch I had decided to splice this new button and harness to the old switch which would free a spot for a switch which was previously held by the sunroof switch and would look much nicer! The problem is that I'm not quite sure how to wire this new switch in. I am assuming that my car had a stock sunroof as there is a harness that clips into the switch right where the switch is in place, but was never occupied as the sunroof operated off another switch. If any info can be provided as to what wires do what and how this could work out it would be much appreciated. I also am not sure the new switch works to begin with. Sorry for the length I'm only trying to be thorough, I am more than happy to answer any questions anybody has and would love some help! Thanks in advance!

The new switch harness wire colors from top to bottom are as follows: Green w/ yellow stripe; green w/ red stripe; solid black; red w/ black stripe; solid red

Upon further investigation I had traced the wires down under my dash to find that the two brown wires lead to a chassis ground, which were horribley pig tied together, but that's beside the point.

90-93 switch electrical. I do not know what the aftermarket switch wires are designated as and how they would correspond.
