Hello vvega,
I checked the datasheets. The PCB footprint is a match, and most of the dimensions are the same. The most significant difference is the height of the plastic housing. The original part's datasheet gives it as 13.18mm, while the new part shows 15.8mm. I measured one of the originals, and it's 15.8, so it's safe to assume that the original part's datasheet has a typo.
Please let me know if it fits for you!
As of now, the original part still has good availability (and it's much less expensive!)
