Wiring a Volkswagon wiper motor

I just got a 1987 VW Golf wiper motor to put in my coupe.
The motor has five wires from it. One green wire and one blue-green wire are for fast and slow. There is a yellow wire, purple, and green stripe wire.
How do I connect the wires up so the wipers will park ? Or can it be done at all ?
Thanks

Doc here,

Are you installing it in the same car?

If not you need the delay relay and a few items..

Try a Manual at the local auto zombie for a diagram.

volkswagon wiper wiring

Hi Doc,
Thanks for the idea about going to Auto Zone...Never thought of that.
The wiper motor is going to my Studebaker coupe. Its a nice compact unit
and should work fine once I can figure out how the wipers "park" after turning them off.
What few items do I need to have ?
Ill run back to the junk yard and get the relay that was on the car.

Doc here,

Here is the Diagram for an 87 Golf WW System..



Looks like your going to need the switch..

The delay timer ..

The Washer motor would be a good score.

The harness COULD be UNWRAPED and removed in tact if your real careful doing it, and used on your rod..so you wouldn't need to build one.
