Window Wiring..

ok heres the deal.. i have a4 door and about acouple weeks ago my master window switch MAGICALLY caught on fire... (Thanks to hondas great engineerin) ok and the problem is that it fried half the circut board... so now i can only roll down the windows on the drivers side and not the passenger..... they wont even roll down with the switches that are on those doors themselves... I guess the master switch completes the circutry of the windows or something... so heres my question .. Ive been checkin out the wiring here..
and we have actuating currents in our window systems... there are two wires listed for each window...

what i wanna know is if for the time being until i order a new master window switch(80$) can i go buy 2 switches at pepboys and wire them up... One used for positive current and one used for negative.. and just flip one switch on and have the window roll down.. then switch the other one and have it go up? will this work? and if so which wire is which?/

btw .. this is totaly temporary.. until i order my new master switch..

once you replace the master, the windows should work, hoping you didnt fry anything on the harness.
