There is a thread somewhere with directions for this. Boils down to two extra wires, and the plastic piece on the new switch is too wide to fit in the steering column. Just remove the white plastic piece, put on the old one, and route the two extra wires from the pump switch down the column. I did this, but haven't put in the pump yet. The wiper part works fine (better than the one it replaced with only low speed!).

i read that the VW 74-79 beetle switch MAY BE the same...
(IMG:http://www2.cip1.com/photos/VWC-111-953-519-G-2.jpg)

but there are 4 and 5 wire varieties... how many does a 914 or 924 switch have??? and why does it STILL have tube hookups!?!?!?!?
