Forget the extra wires in the new plugin. There not used on older car installations.
Don't get confused by the "1&4 and 2&3". The '2 old' regulator to alternator wires are just used for jumpers/extensions. The two wires that come from the car harness are the ones you need to work with. That's the (red or orange maybe) battery wire in the old regulator plug, and the brown gen light wire in the old regulator plug. The old regulator battery wire goes to the end big wire in the new plugin and the regulator brown wire goes to the terminal marked 'L' on the new alternators regulator. pretty sure it's the second wire in the new plugin, but look at the new regulator to be sure.

So if you do the 1&4 and 2&3 deal just just pay attention to what ends up where. As long as regulator battery and regulator gen light end up hooked to the new alternator in the right place.........everything should be good to go.
If you get a piece of red wire and a piece of brown wire, to make your extensions, you can get rid of the old regulator, plug, and wires all together.

Hope that helps clear things up.
