Default wiper question

this may end up being a dumb question but here goes.

90' STD civic HB

I want intermittent wipers, can I be so lucky as to just put a switch from a higher model or do I have to swap out the wiper motor as well?

I'd say it's just the switch that controls the motor.

It should just be in the switch becuase like most of these applications the switch contains a variable resister, decreasing/increasing voltage to the wiper motor by the turn of the swith.

Unless the variable resister is mounted somwhere else then you should just be able to replace the switch with one from like an si and it should work fine....
