Datalogit connector problem.

Hi everyone... I am in the process of restoring my 3rd gen I picked up recently and plan on keeping it. I love the thing and picked up a Datalogit (as well as many other goodies) for it. However the connector that goes from the Datalogit unit to the Apexi PFC does not fit! All pins are in the proper spots, the only difference is in the width/size of the center plastic piece.

I have pictures to show the problem I am having. I don't think I could have ordered the wrong part, I bought them from the http://www.rx7.com website. I am going to try and contact them as well as the Datalogit guys about the problem. It looks like I could just dremmel down the center plastic part which looks to just line up the pins. However of course I don't want to break things if its as simple as them sending me the wrong parts by mistake.

Anyone have any similar problems with it? I searched around and turned up very little info for 'datalogit' only a couple threads about settings and how promising it looks.
The pictures are not very good, but if you look closely at the center plastic piece which helps line up the pins correctly so you cant plug things in the wrong way or break pins is of different sizes...

Thanks!

Well I just decided to break off the center plastic piece, it works fine now. I guess the run offf was just too big.
