Default Jdm wiper speed

I really don't like the way the rear wiper is constant and would prefer it to be every 8 seconds or so.

I know very little about electrics and assumed I may need resistors, and other wizardry to slow it down.

Until I found this relay.

Would it be just a matter of taking mine out, putting this in and following the guide?

Maybe I should have removed the rear wiper motor first but sadly the relay is way too big to fit.
maybe earlier models had a large on but this one doesn't fit compared to the original.

I have contacted the company to see if they do a delayed one in a smaller size.

Never thought it would due to the extra "gubbins" inside the case.
Just mount it separately - not on the bracket

The connectors are micro on the original and large on the replacement.
Unless I can find a loom that fits the larger one and then run some wires to the connectors in the car.
I really don't like cutting the original wires of the car.

Should be pretty easy/straight forward to obtain a standard relay holder to suit, some wire and the appropriate spade connectors to suit the original loom plug.

Literally just spent the last 5 mins thinking this. I have the larger spade connectors but not the smaller ones.
it also looks like the larger relay can easily sit on the bracket where the old one was. Albeit sideways 😀.

Just ordered the wire and connectors and will keep you posted.
