Subject: Re: Intermittent wiper Relay ?

whats the issue here?  you simply remove your existing #19 wiper relay and install the #99 one  in its place, and use the wiper stalk to set the intervals. 

Mr. Bentley says that it is an option on my year & shows how to 
install the option if it is not ordered that way from the factory by 
pulling the plastic piece, but of course assumes that I know how to do 
that? 
 
Maybe tomorrow? 
 
Tom-I love plug & play, kinda like big tires?
