Default Headlight washers

Ok so while installing my HID's I started checking over the headlight washer system. Everything I can see looks good, I even pulled the headlight washers up and the nozzels are in good shape the lines look good, but I can't find the pump or why the damn things aren't working lol. The fuses should be good as the windsheild washers work mint.

Any ideas? and where is the damn pump so I can check the wires and replace if necessary. No one seems to have a repair manual in stock in this city :S

I think you have to have the headlights on and then hold the winshield washer lever on for longer that5 sec.....
