    Gen I shifter to Gen II Cable issue

    I am going from a Gen I remote control shift box to a Gen II.
    I got the box and the Gen II cable.

    Problem is the motor end of the cable does not look like the Gen I and I do not see how to resolve that.
    Any help is appreciated.

    My Gen I cable end at motor 20230713_180050.jpg
    and
    new Gen II cable at motor 20230713_180120.jpg
