Ignition Lock Question

Ign Lock on my 88 is shot - had a spare that I previously bought but they're different, the "new" one has a mechanical lever that looks like a cable should attach to it - my orig. doesnt - what does it do and do I need it? Also there is a small plastic box on the front side of the lock assm. wired in with the Ign Switch (green and red w/yellow stripe wires) the mounting points have been switched??? Again what does it do and do I need it?
