I received a new iBook G4 display but it does not fit in the board?

I ordered an iBook G4 display for an iBook G4 and set out to install it but the display has a 6-pin inverter cable while the logic board looks like it only receives a 4-pin cable.
Is there any way around this? Why do the displays have different pins?

No, I got the right display, Apple designed it wrong.
I have all the parts to an iBook G4 and they're all stupidly incompatible. I have a G3 screen with a completely different connector. I ordered a A1055 logic board and got a 14" board (for a 12"). Because Apple gives boards the same part number (whether they are 12" or 14").
I have two G4 logic boards with 4 pin inverter cable ports and 2 displays with 6 pin inverter cable input.
You can put a 4 pin inverter cable into a 6-pin inverter port. I'm going to cut 2 pins off of the inverter connector with an exactoknife and see if it works because this is ridiculous. I have all these parts and cannot even make 1 working laptop.
