81 to 85 wiring harness

[81cutlass]

Putting an 85 Salon console shifted, column wiper conrol dash into my 81 Supreme column shifted dash wiper control car. I have read that the wiring harness between the 2 are different due to wiper locations. Do I need the wiring harness out of the 85 to do this or can I get away with the 81 harness? Any special relay boxes needed or any of the black plastic boxes under the drivers side dash to swap the dashes?

Still wondering here.

I seem to recall this coming up not too long ago.

I think Bonnewagon and Longroof had the ideas about it... Not positive.

But I've got to be honest, I'm too lazy to look for the thread...

Well I did find one topic on ignition switch changes and those are different. Still kinda wondering about the wipers and light harnesses though.
