Default Wiper switches

Quick question, Will a wiper switch from a US FC fit into my Jspec?

Been on the hunt for one over here for so long and can't seem to get ahold of one. So if I can get one from the states that works I'm willing to fork out the shipping costs. If they will fit does anyone have one for sale?

I dunno about that, but if you have yours and it is broken the fix is pretty easy.

You need like $8 worth of Omron relays, a $10 radio shack 15W desoldering iron, and some solder.

It has been 4 years since I rebuilt mine, so I don't remember the part numbers or which relay does which function (intermittent, park, rear wiper, etc).

I may have to start fixing these at some point in the future. Anyone have some broken ones they want to give me to practice with?

Just make sure when/if you replace them to use the high current sealed version of the relays that Mazda used. They used unsealed low current relays, which is why you are replacing them.
