It sounds like you already had the newer cable and just needed to remove the adapter so you could snap the newer cable into the newer helm.

The older style cable I don't think would work no matter what you would have tried.
Is this what you pulled off of your cable?

If so, it sounds like someone replaced the older cable with the newer style already and had to use that adaptor.
Glad you got it fixed properly I hope as steering is a safety must.
