What you purchased is just a PCI-e adaptor for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth cards. You are still missing the actual Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card.

Seeing as how your adaptor has three antennas, can use the BCM94360CS/BCM94360CSAX.
 
will the Macbook Pro A1398 BCM94360CS Bluetooth Wi-Fi Card be ok in it? Will it be compatible?

Another silly question here but where do the three wires connect to??

Thanks

I don't know the different model numbers off hand... Too many to remember... Just look at the AirPort card from that model. If it has a connector that's the same as what I linked to, it should work.

The pigtail antennas from your adaptor connect to:

The pigtail antennas snap in to place. No soldering required.

The pigtails are all the same. You can attach them to the card in any order you like.
 
Im really struggling to attach them wven with magnifying glass! They look like they will match and fit but dont seem to stay attached!

There are different sized connectors...

I think the BCM94360CS uses MHF-4.
 
So if they are diffrent can they be soldered?? Or is there any other options??
