Intermittent Wiper kit from DetroitSpeed - Any reviews

Saw this in this month's Car Craft. It's hella pricy ($620 with motor, switch and washer pump), but they claim to be a bolt-in swap.

Anybody sprung for this? How was installation? Worth the price?

Dude, my wipers are intermittent and I didn't have to install anything. AND variable speed. Anyone else have this factory option? LOL

The big upgrade with the Detroit is you get a completely different motor from the slow stock motor. As far as I know everything else on the market uses the stock motor.
