You should have 4 cables that hook up to the solenoid. Once the solenoid is installed the positive battery cable goes to the left side. The big stud. If you're looking straight at it. If you are standing over it it will be the front side of car, or your right side. There should be another cable that runs opposite of that side to the starter. There is only one place on the starter for this to hook up too. Make sure there is a good connection there. The 2 smaller cables are for ignition and start. The smaller hookup on the left side (same side as battery positive) should be your S, the other I.

It's on top of the transmission case. To get to it, go under the car on the passenger side, near the right rear wheel. Look on top of the transmission case at the widest end and you'll see a large cylindrical object - that's the starter. There will be a smaller cylinder on top of the starter - that is the solenoid. If you need to replace the starter, it is recommended that you replace both the starter and solenoid.
