Wiper Switch on '79 Silverado
« on: February 06, 2010, 12:54:32 pm »
Hey y'all I have the regular 2 speed wiper switch and I would like to have variable speed wipers.

I wondered if I could just replace the switch with an original variable speed switch w/module to get variable speed wipers. Can I just plug that switch in with no modification or will i need to run an extra aux to the fuse box or somethin?

I'm trying to keep from making a mistake and burning something out...thanks.

birdy, they come up on eBay regularly.  I've bought two of them, one for 27.00 and one for 16.00, that includes switch and module.  I think there is one on there now for 39.00 buy it now.
