How to convert to delay wipers.

This is the best site I have found with so many knowledgeble people who are willing to help. I have 2 questions .
I need help understanding what I need to do to convert from standard non-delay wipers to delay wipers.

Also, can I add factory style cruise if so what do I need and how do I do it.

My vehicle 91 F150 standard cab 2wd 5 spd 4.9L

Thanks for the quick reply. For the wiper delay where does the delay box mount? Is it part of the switch? I will go to the recycle yard tomorrow and try and locate the parts.
For the cruise How can I tell if the vehicle is wired for cruise? What should I look ofr at the recycle yard?

sorry , i didnt come back online after my post, the moudle is directly behind the the switch in the dash , as far as the cruise, you have to see if the connectors are in the right place for the componants

I Did go to the bone yard and picked up the delay switch, and the black box with harness attached. I'm planing on installing tomorrow. This should be pretty easy and I will be glad to be able to move the switch to the left instead of constantly to the right and then back to the left when there is a little mist.
Thanks for the help.
