DIY Installation: My 2020 Maruti XL6 gets Intermittent wiper function

The process is largely the same even on a 2020 Baleno Zeta but failed on a friend's XL6 Zeta.

DIY Upgrade - Adding Variable Speed Intermittent Wiper function on my XL6

Ever since the Grand Vitara/2022 Brezza came out, I noticed the stalk which matched the shape/profile of the stalks I have on my XL6. Curiously, checked their PIN diagrams and it was identical. Placed an order with MASS locally around July but the part hasn't arrived till now. Thankfully, the stalk came in stock on Boodmo and I ordered it immediately.

Installation was a simple affair:

1. Remove one screw and pull the lower part of the dashboard trim, comes out cleanly.

2. There will be one screw holding the lower part of the steering column cover, unscrew it and remove the lower part.

3. Turn the steering wheel to the left and right and unscrew the two screws visible and remove the top part of the column cover.

4. Undo the tab to release the stalk and also the coupler.

5. Installation is simply a reverse process and you are done.

Cons: The only single demerit is that the new stalk has a REAR INT function, but the wiring of XL6 or other models on Heartect doesn't support it. Anyways we didn't have this function earlier, so no harm was done.

Installation success in Baleno 2020 Zeta MT: The process was largely the same, except the lower part of the dash had two screws instead of 1 in my XL6
