Default Eurospare fuel sender wiring

Hi Gentlemen! Todays project is to replace the fuel sending unit. So far, so good, got the fuel drained down and removed old sender. Replaced gasket with new. The dilemma is the wiring, which is in a vertical column of three connectors on the Eurospare #W0133-1617470. I can figure out the ground wire, which is the top left (no insulator) on the original sender. I sure do not want to short anything out or blow anything up!!
Anyone with experience with the Eurospare unit?

Original unit.

Eurospare W0133-1617470

Thanks a million in advance!
John

Default Wiring figured out

OK, crisis averted! I had to change the spade connectors on the car, as they were a bit too small. The car now actually reads darn near full (WAY over 3/4 mark) when I just gassed it up!

Top is on RT side, black wire (ground). Green/Yellow to middle, Brown/White to bottom.

Are you 100% sure that is the correct part? It looks like ones I have seen used in convertibles.

Thanks, Greg! I am a day behind in posting. Further research revealed that this unit is indeed for a convertible, DAC-10183. It is on it's way out of the car, the proper unit is on the way. I saw the float arm was different, but passed that off as an aftermarket thing. Will have correct unit next week!
