Interval Wipers

Perhaps someone can help me. I've got a '71 F-250 with the regular 2 speed wipers. They did not offer the interval wipers til later in the 70's. Anybody ever put an interval set-up in this year truck? (68 to 72 should all be the same) By the way, I have in hand an interval set-up from a '77 T-Bird but since it has 10 wires out the rear of the plug and my 2 speeder has 8 and they are all different colors I don't want to fry anything!

Thanks for the tip. I know I've got one of those catalogs around here somewhere. I sure hope they have a kit where I do not have to replace my wiper motor - just the switch.

If you can't find the catalog let me know... I have a new one and the switch is just the switch... you can get one that has a washer switch also..

Thanks for the tip about J.C. Whitney. I found my catalog and you guys are right about the switch. I think I'm gonna keep trying to make do with either the T-Bird switch I have or try looking for one out of maybe a '71 Lincoln - they probably had interval wipers and I might get lucky with the wire colors. The only reason i want to hold off on the Whitney switch is because you have to mount the whole setup under the dash and I'd like to try and keep the original looking switch. Once again thanks alot for all your help. That's why this is the best site on the web.
