Default Heated Wiper Fluid

I'm still trying to sort out this install. Something just doesn't make sense. The new squirter I put in has a connector coming off it. I ran the wiring harness from the two squirters to the fluid reservior. There was a connector and harness coming from the old squiter, that terminated on the reservior pump. By putting in the new squirter, I then use the new harness. On the other side of the harness, is a two pin connector that mates perfectly with the heater element in the picture. The heating element can't replace the pump, makes no sense. There is an indentation on the side of the reservior that looks like where the heater element would mount. It can't just mount there, because there is no way for it to stay in place. The opposite side of the heater has a four prong clip for it to snap into place somewhere. and there is the two pin receptacle for the harness to connect to.

The only thing that could possibly explain all this is, the squirter is supposed to have two connector, one for the pump, and one for the heater. Then I would use that squiter, reconnect the original harness, and also the new harness. Then I would find the correct way to mount the heater, and reconnect the pump to the original harness.

Here are pics of the parts. The one with the white connector is the connection between the new squieter, and it's harness. The white connector to the left, id the unconnected end of the original harness, it won't fit on the new squirter. I also showed the heater element, and the flip side of the element,where the new harness is supposed to terminate to it at the reservior. Cali-Ti was the one who said these were the correct parts, I'm having my doubts. Haven't seen him around in awhile, and not sure if he ever finished this mod.
