Well the thermostat never connects to a wiring harness. The one you pictured is called the front engine harness.
The one you probably want is called the emissions engine harness. There are a number of thermosensors (fuel, water, air) connected through it. It's also the one harness in the engine bay that gets roasted and destroyed by engine heat. You can get them for about $800 from Malloy Mazda. (You can find contact info in the 3rd gen FAQ)
