Wrap sounds right. Things kind of drop into place. Just make sure they wrap properly top & bottom & colored clips are as described when at pulley. Ones closest to firewall from each side start on bottom and other two start on top.

Really kind of curious how they got crossed unless one of the mounts started wrong. As fig 7 shows, the mounts are in the park position because the inside cables are longer meaning the attachment at the mount pulleys is almost at the inside bottom -- almost as far as it can go pulling blades toward chrome. When finished, obviously the wiper posts will turn in opposite directions and you should have around 120 degree range.

EDIT Just looked at fig 9 again and it looks like that is at full sweep position--maybe for picture clarity showing the clips.
