82 wiper motor

I haven't been able to find this anywhere. All I need is a picture of a 82 wiper motor mounted to the firewall. I don't have the plugs and just need to know what colored wires go where.

All of my local wrecking yards have 84 and newer and appear to be different.

Mine has an "L" shaped plug with 3 wires and a flat plug with 3 wires.

I was able to find this Pic which should take care of the "L" shaped plug with yellow, pink, green.

The flat should be yellow, purple, and gray.

Thanks

Re: 82 wiper motor

The motor off 79(?)-81 f body's will work. I know the motor is the same. The electronics I believe are the same as well. There a couple of options. You can use the stock electronics and purchase a motor w the cover/electronics or hawks and a few other companies make an upgrade that makes the washer pump electronically driven vs driven off the wiper motor.

the 84 and newer have a different motor/mounting and the electronics are totally different.

the 82/83 cars are more of a mix of second gen's.

I appreciate the wiring diagram but that doesn't help me without seeing a physical plug. That diagram doesn't tell me where the wires go onto the wiper/washer motor.
