    I've beat the internet to death trying to find a pre-68' windshield wiper switch for my 12v wiper motors. Plenty of 68+ wiper switches available, will they work with my 66?

    Aren't your wiper motors mounted on the top of the windshield frame?

    No, 12v, I've updated the post to clarify. Thanks.

    Would this work? I think this is a two speed switch, I purchased but ended up needing a single speed switch. I won't be back at my parts and books for a week. I can verify the part number.

    I found a single speed switch, but will have to look up what it was from and where I found it, it was the same as the jeep but not in Jeep packaging.

    not sure, I'm not clear on why other switches won't work with my setup. maybe they do and I just don't realize it. it looks like one of the other responders found the original switch

    So... are your wiper motors 2 speed or 1 speed? PM me if you are interested in the 2 speed switch.
