They are 5-pin connectors, which are used for X30 and also for the outside temperature display in the instrument cluster, under the speedometer. Identical part number and a lot easier to get from a car in the junkyard. If you have to buy a new one from Pelican Parts it doesn't matter which one you get, they are identical. Remember the plastic plug and the metal pins are separate items, part numbers listed in the OP. You don't have to buy all 5 pins, just as many as you need for the circuits you want to tap into. If you need only +12 Volts and Ground then you need only 2 pins.
