The hatch that is not original to the car, probably has a third brake light, whereas in your original car it did not. My 1985 doesn't have a 3rd brake light, but I was told that in 1985 to 1987 is where they began to add it. That is most likely the only difference. You should be able to match the heavy wires, heavy black and heavy silver I think (these are defrost, as plumkrazy mentioned), then the red stripe (even if they have different stripes) match up, purple, etc. The last two, brown and whatever the last one is, should be paired on their own, and that is just brake signal and ground.
If your hatch has the brake light, and you want to run it, just run a wire from one of your brake lights, up to the + side of the 3rd brake light (the non-brown wire). If not, you can just let it sit their non-functional, or get a wing that doesn't have 3rd brake light provision, and you are set.
