TR4/4A TR4a ignition switch question

Hi guys - I went to install the ignition switch on the TR4a and it looks like eBay seller sent the wrong one. The manual shows that there are 1 - 4 numbered connection points, but the switch only has 1 - 3. Do you think the switch is wrong, and if so can I work around it or better to just source the right switch.

Thanks!
 
Does the "new" switch have screw or "Lucar" (spade) terminals? Seems to me that, by the TR4A, Triumph had pretty much gone over to the switches with the ACC position. (Had one of the later type switches kicking around my computer desk, but I seem to have misplaced it!)
 
Here is mine, 1 on top w/ blue, clockwise 4 is black.

I've got one of each. I hate the replacement one without the accessory position. I plan on cleaning up and installing the original. I can take a look and see how I have the cheapo installed.
