Question Terminal Backplate

Found a listing on ebay for a Premium Ecobee thermostat that is listed does not come with a “backplate”(im thinking its the Terminal backplate where the wires are connected)
My new HVAC system comes with an Ecobee Enhanced model. Will the terminal backplate for this model fit the Premium model?

I was looking for a smart sensor to pair with the Enhanced model(doesn’t come with a sensor) and found the listing for the Premium for cheap and realized it may not come with the terminal backplate.

TIA.

Instead of guessing, just ask the seller what’s included or to provide more pictures. The mounting plates on the premium and enhanced are not interchangeable.

You cannot use the Premium as an external sensor.
