One last thermo switch question
My understanding was that the FC switch was a direct plug and play replacement for the FD part, but the connector doesn't seem the same at all

That looks like the one that Pettit Racing sells. it's not plug and play, does require a new connector.
The FC thermo switch that IR Performance gave the part number for is plug and play. It's from Mazda.

Sadly, this is what I suspected. I'll have to sort out a return and getting the correct part.

It's one of those "you can rig that connector to plug in" - I wouldn't call it plug and play. Only advantage there is it's cheaper than the OEM part and it kicks on at 85 degrees C rather than 97 degrees C.
You can either cut the existing connector off and put a matching parts store crimp-on connector on it or remove the red plastic around the connector on the fan switch and push it into the connector.
You could also return it but that's a pain.
