I finally installed the rain sensor today. When I was working on it, it was raining outside. Ironically, when I finished installation, the rain stopped. So I had to get out the hose to test it. It works like a charm. The wiper speed is automatically adjusted according to the amount of rain on the windshield. If there's no rain, it stops wiping. Best of all, it can be override for manual operation. I love it!
I bought the optional sensitivity control (XC-1), which is mounted on the steering column below the wiper switch. The sensor itself is mounted next to the rearview mirror. What's most time consuming was taking all the panels off to run the wires. But it's worth it!
