Alternator harness question

Okay so my car was running around 12 volts forever and i thought my alternator was done, the other day I finally pulled it off to go buy a new one, and found out that I have no signal wires for my car(s4 alternator), the harness is completely missing. Anyways I found the two wire plug in harness at a parts store and also tested my alternator while I was there..tested good. Which part of the engine harness do those two wires tie into? If anyone has a picture that'd be great and would make it alot easier for me. I still have to find out where the wires are, it was a tii swap so I'm thinking along the way the original owner forgot them somewhere or lost em...Thanks for any help, greatly appreciated.

(Want this thing running good for spring!)

Does anyone have a picture of the back of their alternator, it'll be much easier if I can find which part of the harness it ties into visually then running through a wiring diagram

I can get a pic of the S4 TII alternator when I get off work, I have it laying around from when I swapped to a Taurus alternator.

I read about doing a TII swap with the TII harness on an N/A car..
Look at putting 12 volts to the alternator with a Single wire from the battery(positive wire).
If you would have used the N/A harnes,it has that wire already..BUT the TII harness does not.
...It would be OK if the car itself WAs a TII before..but since it Wasn't..then that may be your Problem..
..see threads by HAILERS.(key word alternator or tII swap).
EDIT: I just punched in : hailers alternator .....with search and I got 9 pages.
