1953 wiper switch

Maybe a silly question, Does it matter if you have a 12 volt switch for your wiper switch in a 1953 f250 even if you have a six volt system. A 6 volt switch seems to be rather difficult to find. This is mostly wishful thinking. Thank you in advance for any answers,

Not a silly question at all. 6-volt equipment is typically heavier duty.

I think it would be okay. My 12-volt switch (Midfifty) seems to be heavy enough.
