Default Are the front and rear O2 sensors different shapes?

I bought a set of used Dynatech headers awhile back and they only came with (2) 30" o2 extension wires. I went and bought a pair of 24" o2 extenders. Now I'm reading through the install instructions and it says that :

The front and rear cables are different as indicated by their shape and keys. The fronts will only plug into the front connectors and likewise the rears will only plug into the rear connectors.
I'm looking at both plugs on each extender, and they look to be the same. Did I order the wrong extenders?

Front and rear o2 sensors have different plugs. One is square (front) and the other is kinda triangular (rear).

Crap. That's what I figured.

All 4 are square. So which set should I keep? The 30" ones or the 24" ones?

Is this what I need for the rears:

That's what they look like. Sometimes there are indexing issues but nothing you cant fix with a box knife. Jegs sells the same brand for less.

Good luck!
