Early warning: I am now officially out of wiper motor pigtails (5-pin
connectors with wires). All of the junk yards near here have been cleaned
out and I don't expect to be in Atlanta any time soon to visit a
Pull-a-Part. SO, if you're planning to order an electric wiper upgrade
kit, be aware that I WILL NOT be able to supply a pigtail. If you're in a
junkyard, for whatever reason, go ahead and get a pigtail. The 5-pin
connector is used on virtually all GM trucks and SUV's of the '90's. Those
on S-10's are easiest to collect because the ground wire and the other 4
wires are in a separate bundle toward the driver's side. Other vehicles
have the ground, only, routed toward the passenger side, thus complicating
pulling the 12" or so you'd like to get. Cost should be
 
Ken,

A pic would help. Lots of junkyards in Las Vegas.

Do you have enough to supply me for other customer?
