Options for delay wipers

I saw a 93 CDT in the salvage yard a while back that had delay wipers. Any one have an opinion on what all needs to be taken from the truck to convert my two speed system to delay. Or is going to a aftermarket system a easier solution?
Thanks
Jason

Jason-I just looked in my '93 FSM, it looks like you need the switch (well, duh) and the control module (says it's "mounted on bracket under steering column", has 8 wires hooked to it). Wiper motors seem to be identical. I do have an aftermarket intermittent system laying around somewhere that I never got around to putting on my old truck, I'll see if I can scare it up and let you know what it takes to hook that up in comparison.

Thanks for your reply. It is sounding like the Original Equipment replacement might not be that hard. I would be pleased if that turns out to be the case.
Also sending you a PM note.

I'm not sure about aftermarket units, but I have been in the scrap yard recently, looking for an idea of how the cruise control is wired. (mine was butchered by the previous owner).

It seems to met that the wiring leading to the windshield wiper motor, and in general, underneath the dash is quite similar between my 91, and the 93 I looked at the other day. If I get back there, I'll take a look for the control module and let you know. They may be the same control module 91&93. I would think it would be the same anyway. Good luck with your truck.
