Confession time - I looked at the local parts store part I purchased again and realized that I was not looking at it correctly. Once I removed the outer shell that screws to the back of the unit to secure it to the dash it fit fine. Feeling really stupid.

All wired in place and functions as intended.

Thank you all for your input and sorry to have wasted everyone's time.
