USB C connector

My Model S has the Lightning connector for an iPhone in the centre console. I want to switch it out for USB C for my S9 but I need to measure the right angled connectors.

Browsing e-bay I see people are selling the right angled cable for a model 3 for £10. Does anyone with both cars know if Tesla saved money by using the same cable for the S and 3 and if I get one for the 3 whether it'd fit the standard S mount?

Thanks

Mine fits. I ordered the kit with the USB C cable since a kind soul at the SC gave me the bag for the Model 3 with the micro USB and Lightning cables. All 3 heads look the same and fit the dock in the center console. I didn't need the USB C, but I wanted to be ready for my next phone and not have to track down the cable by itself.
