Really need help with this, I cant edit the post to change the topic title so reposting it with a different title since anyone who does stuff like this may know the answer not just people who have taken apart a Wii before, i'm guessing all DVD drive plugs are probably the same standard

You must have bent the pins when you were showing the plug in.

One option you have is just to solder wires from each pin to the corresponding pin on the other plug. That will do the same job.
