Default Washer fluid resevoir replacement

I'm looking for some guidance on completely removing the reservoir from a 997.2 C2S. I have the pumps and hoses detached and the reservoir and the reservoir is pulled forward from the chasis grommets. The last part is removing the wire harness from the reservoir and I'm stumped. It seems to be held by some kind of plastic nut, but it does not turn and I can't figure it out. It does not seem to fit through the hole in the reservoir. Any guidance is sincerely appreciated. I have attached photos of the plastic piece. Thank you!



Black plastic retains the wiring harness.

That looks like one of those quick plugs where you pull the circular center pin out which allows the flared legs to then retract.

Thank you, Petza. I followed through on your suggestion and found that the plastic is one solid piece, not one of those quick-plugs. But, I was able to remove it by gently pushing it through the hole in the reservoir. Pulling it didn't work, but pushing it through was pretty straightforward. Anyway, the job is done -- I have windshield washers again. I appreciate your quick reply!
