Any 3 position switch (on/off/on) will work you just need to sort out your wiring to corespond with the switch.If you want intermittent then you would need a 4 position switch.

Almost any switch can be used to power your wipers although you may have to use an additional relay.

Another factor is wether you want both speeds or just one.

Here's a diagram, not mine but one of the gents on here.

For the Lucas (Mini) wiper motor you need the Lucas wiper specific switch (£20) on the linked page in the above post. Otherwise you will need relays in the system.
