Problem with Bremi ignition coil

My 2008 Convertible threw a code for a misfire. I had a new coil that I had bought but not yet put on so I got it out of the box and started to put it on. One problem, the connection on the back of the Bremi coil is longer than the stock so the wiring connector won’t fit on enough to “lock” in place. I told the vendor I’d photograph the issue and send it to them.

I'm curious though, anybody else have this problem?

Nobody at Pelican parts believed me but they are giving me a store credit.

here are the pictures I took to hopefully show that they are different:

The connector as far as it would go on.

Side by side but it’s hard to tell anything.

If you look down between you can see the difference in length. It might have worked if the extra length was in front of the connector.
