I just bought a new tail light assembly from the dealer. Part number seems correct. Went to put it in - good mechanical fit, but the connectors don't match!
The connector bodies are the same, but the new part has an additional pin. It seems like the connector wont plug in easily, and I don't want to force it.
Anyone else encountered this issue?

I think it would be a safe guess to assume that one is for a European model and one for a US model, they use different plugs due to the differences in lighting between EU and NAS models?
