Unhappy Can't find the right clock spring. 2008 Fit base

Replacing a bad dimmer switch, I messed up the clock spring. (Please don't ask!). I ordered a new clock spring, but 2 out of the 3 pigtail connectors are different on the new one, they even have a different number of wires in them. Every source for a new clock spring, including my local Honda dealer, shows a part just like the one I ordered and received. CarFax says my 2008 started life as a rental in Puerto Rico, which may be the problem. Also, my steering wheel airbag has a different arrangement of wires than a new airbag for a 2008 Fit base model.

Anyone have an idea what's going on?!?

I had the dealership order 77900-SLN-A11 and it was the right one. I was nervous because I saw the one on Ebay with the same part # that was clearly wrong and had all the extra wires, but the one that the dealership ordered didn't have those and was correct. I hope you were able to get a refund from Ebay. Somehow they had the wrong part in the box.

It set me back 300 bucks, which sucked, but at least I can drive my car again.
