Wiper Motor/Fluid Pump Question

I have torn my car down to nothing, so eliminate unneded wiring, tuck the rest, and all around restore metal/carpeting/sound dampening and so on.

The firewall is now mostly bare, but the washer fluid/pump combo thing is an eyesore! are there any later model 3rd gens that use a separate pump in the fluid reservoir? or do 4th gens do so? Either way, is it a direct swap? besides the connector itself, would the wiring remaint he same? it's a pulsed unit. It has a 3 wire connector and a 2 wire connector. I assume 3 wire for wiper speed and 2 wire for pump on/off?

the pump/motor is broken as it sits, so I need to replace it either way and would like to take the opportunity to update something that drives me nuts

Thanks for any input

Bump! Should this be moved to a different board?

Re: Wiper Motor/Fluid Pump Question

What about the wiper motor? can I use a 4th gen one of those? Will it work with 3rd gen collumn switch for delay?
