Hi
That wiring looks correct.
Assuming that the lamp has a standard filament bulb, it doesn't matter which way round it's wired.
To answer Tony's question, the original lamps are entered from the front of the panel. Then from behind, you have to slip on a coil spring and cup washer. Finally, there is a "U" shaped spring clip made of square section steel. This slides in sideways into grooves each side of the bakelite body, and retains the coil spring in a compressed state of about half its free length. All a bit fiddly and much easier if the panel is out on the bench rather than in the car !
