hmmm stick it back on ebay and get your money back lol

sorry mate electronics is not my strong point; not sure if you could make some sort of adapter  :undecided: or if you're feeling brave try and wire the wires into the MKIV connector.  you need a wiring diagram though to ensure its wired correctly;
