Welcome to the forum Bcxj8,

I've copied this question from your Intro for advice from members with the same model.

Both gearboxes will interchange but the harness connector brackets are different from the X100 and X300. You need to remove the steel bracket (on the top/rear of the bell housing) and install the correct one.
