Did Mitsubishi change something, or do I have dsylexia?

Okay, so I was working on setting up a home-made mini battery kit. Well, I blew the plastic piece that has 2 fuses in it that houses the positive battery terminal. I ordered a new one from Mitsubishi...built after 2004 (
Amazon.com: Mitsubishi OEM Positive Battery Cable Fuse Block - EVO 8/9 Build Date after 7/04 MR583955: Automotive Amazon.com: Mitsubishi OEM Positive Battery Cable Fuse Block - EVO 8/9 Build Date after 7/04 MR583955: Automotive
) but from my local dealer (as mine is a 06)

The only weird thing is, now the fuses are flipped in terms of strength.

I know that photo isn't clear but it is:


New Plastic Piece

60 AMP 100 AMP (ALT)


----------------------------------
Old Plastic Piece


100AMP 60 AMP (ALT)

---------------------------------

the new "fuse" looks thicker on the 100ALT (compared to the 60 AMP side so I am thinking that it isn't mis-labeled.

Did Mitsubishi make a change, or did I get a defective one?

I don't want to blow one of these things, let alone hurt something (starter/alternator) on the car
