Simple on/off toggle that replaces headlight washer switch?
 
I am looking for a simple on/off two-position switch that fits in place of the headlight washer switch. Possibly something from a 964? I thought I found it with part #964-613-325-01-01C-OEM from our host but, this is also a temporary switch like the oe washer.

There’s a rear wiper switch that will work.

I took apart my washer switch and removed the spring. This way it looks stock but functions as a toggle.

Rear wiper switch is something like a 5-post switch. Good idea on the spring removal, I’ll give that a go.

Are you trying to use it as a kill switch? I wouldnt want the headlight washer running in just on off mode. That pump / wiring draws a lot of power.

Get over to mouser.com or digikey.com and lose your mind over the thousands of options. You’re certain to find what you’re in search of and without any Porsche tax.

This ended up working perfectly, thanks!

The power window selector switch appears to be the same size/style. I repurposed mine as a oil cooler fan switch.

It is a large pump, and moves a lot of water and will hose down the entire vehicle.
