Whoever told you the replacement switch is the chromed switch, is incorrect.

The chrome trimmed switch was in production until 1981 model year. In 1982 the illuminated switch replaced the chrome trimmed switches. In 1983 the electric adjustable passenger side mirror became standard.

If the chromed replacement switch was on the '83 car then the center console was replaced since the earlier style switch is larger and has different plugs as you observed. If it is automatic transmission the PRNDSL shift gate is positioned differently as well.
