Alternator Help Please

Alternator Help Please
I feel REALLY stupid right now...
My new alternator just arrived from GearHeads.com
Waited 3 weeks and she sure is pretty
However, I specified the proper alternator (I thought there were only 2 types one-wire or three-wire) and they promised it would be a direct fit for my '87 baby.
But my clip has 3-wires and the big red battery cable.[:@][sm=headbang.gif]
I've attached some pics for help.
The old alt had a plug with 3-wires 1-brown 1-blue and 1-red connected to it.
The new alt has the normal 2 blade type males for a connector plug.
Please, Please, Please! Somebody explain how to fix this problem.
I've already missed over 3 weeks of Wisconsin's very short driving season[:'(]
Yes, I'm beggin' here bro's[sm=helpout.gif][sm=helpout.gif][sm=helpout.gif]

[sm=icon_flaming.gif][sm=icon_flaming.gif][sm=icon_flaming.gif]Just noticed!
Idiots sent me the wrong part to begin with[sm=shootshoot.gif]
Now I just need to try to get my money back and NEVER shop at GearHeads.com again[:@]
So, anyone know where I can get a polished 100amp alternator for an 1987 Vette?
I just want the underhood experience to be nice otherwise I would have gone to a local place...
Refuse to give up[sm=icon_cheers.gif]
