Default Wiper **** question

My '79 is missing the wiper switch **** and all that sticks out of the plate is a metal tab. I don't have a delay wiper system, only "slow" and "fast". I looked in several catalogs and they only seem to sell the **** for a wiper delay system. Can anyone tell me if the **** is the same? I know for most modern systems, the delay can be adjusted by turning the ****. Thanks.

Sorry Maj, mine is a delay system, has a small black **** with a white arrow around the face to show intermittent speed, same as zip products part number WW-247. I am not sure what yours should look like.

The two ***** are the same except for the arrow to indicate delay. You can install this on the non delay switch as is or paint it black.
