I added them to my '74 using a J.C.Whitney wiper controller. It wasn't plug and play and requires some tinkering. To find out how I did it just do a Google search for "good solution for intermittent wipers" make sure to use the quotes.

Not sure if you are going to get a response, but if I were going to give it a try...

I would start by seeing if I could get this switch to fit into my existing switch location (will require disassembly of the switch case).

84-89 Corvette wiper switch

If I could get the switch to fit then I would see if I could get this motor to fit.

88-96 Corvette wiper motor

An 80+ motor may work if wired similarly.

Then with a 88 wiring diagram in hand (or help from the C4 forum) I would alter my harness to operate it.

Since I have a '74 I would also have to change the washer bottle to a 75+ and add a 75+ washer pump.

Looks like you'll have to be the Guinnea Pig.
