Default wrong radiator?

I bought this radiator http://www.genesisautoparts.com/prod...w2NBoCJKfw_wcB


When I compare it to the one I pulled out, the 2nd to bottom hole on the passenger side is covered with metal.


Did I get the wrong one or something?

Its the water pump inlet that has a piece of metal blocking it

Are you sure you are not just seeing the metal trans cooler that is inside the passenger tank? Coolant should flow around it and the hole to the hose should not be "blocked".

thats most likely exactly what im looking at I have a manual so my old one didnt have a trans cooler. Good to know

But I kinda got a bigger problem now....I forgot a wire and I cannot for the life of my figure out where its suppose to go

Hopefully one of you more experienced guys can tell me where to plug this back into

Edit: Wire says "29 PED" on it if that means anything
