Wipers question

Has anyone ever installed a custom switch, like say a toggle switch for the wipers instead of the big bulky switch that would come with the mid fifty switch?

I did some searching since I posted this (my phone's almost dead)

As long as the motor has an internal park switch I can wire it to a toggle with a relay. Should be easy enough

You don't say for what year truck but did on the wife's 52. Used a pull type marine switch.

Switch is in the stock choke hole just to the left of the column.

Ordered a new **** with no letter and threaded it to fit the switch. Can't tell anything has changed and you just pull for wipers
