Hey guys, I'm looking for a rotaty wiper switch for my LX dash, that I can power with 12V that will send it down:
1 - A terminal when in off
2 - A different terminal when rotated to Speed 1
3 - A different terminal when rotated to Speed 2
4 - A different terminal when pushed in, for a washer.

Basically... Instead of switching ground, I want it to output 12V and have a supply terminal I can connect to.

Anyone know one that fits straight in?
The standard one works nicely, but I can't insulate it and connect 12V supply easily. The earth pin is only a few mm long.

Okay, that Hella 7010 looks like it's probably a trick switch, Ben. But I can't find a lot of useful data on it.
1) Can it do the "push to spray" thing?
2) And does it have an infinitely variable dwell as a first position, then it clicks into Speed 1, and then Speed 2?

I've also found the Cole Hersee 75600-02:

That one seems to have 3x positions of intermittent, then speed 1, then speed 2. With push to spray. In my head, that would work pretty darn well.

Yeah that Cole Hersee looks to be a lot better, and the one I was looking at using in mine. Also I think I gave you the wrong part no. for the Hella but I know they have one with 2 speeds and push to wash.

Cole Hersee do one the same as a standard Torana switch, however not 100% sure if it earth's through the body of the switch.
