hardwiring wipers

I still cant get my wipers to work after I swapped cabs recently (see post a few pages back about 93 cab onto 95 truck). I Would like to know how to wire the wiper motor to a toggle switch inside the truck with just one position, on and off. What wires do I need to splice into and also should the motor be case grounded and be grounded through one of more of the wires?

If you have the same wire colors, here is a post I made a few days ago.

You could wire it with a simple on-off switch, but you would have to cut them off just right so they would be low on the windshield(park position).

Now that I think about it, if you had a single poll, double throw on-off switch, you could have low speed and park position. Let me do a little figuring, and maybe I can make a little diagram.
