Albert, now I have seen it, looks fine!
A wery neat model probably better than my big switch. I also thought of finding a '74 or later super beetle wiper switch, they had electric flushing from factory at least in our country, think it should fit(?).

i have change my tech. if we look on this,, lars ,,pict. you can see the steell plate like a spring onder the white push pin,,, i have replace this steel plate witch the same bent by a cupper plate more long ,, one side is screw like that on one side witch a wirer onder the screw,, and on the secon cuper screw and nut ,we screw another wire,, wend the push pin push the cupper plate that geeve the contact,,on the flat nut and witch that we have a new swith,,not nécessary to put a spring onder the cupper plate ,,the cupper plate is able to keep her original spring for long time for this small utilisation,,we adjust the end of the cupper plate just for to clear the nut, in the normal position ,,and i have take the 12 volts on the parking light in the trunk plus a small fuse 2-3 amps for to doo more safe for the motor pump and the new swith ,,,, albert
