So just after praising the customer service of getting this boot to my house in 2 days of placing the order I run into the part not even being in the same ball park of fitment. Anyone else having this issue? There isn't even a place for the wire to sit like in the stock one.

Update: I have an early boot setup. Must have been before the switch in 73.
