Assuming you mean a common toggle switch connect one terminal to the fuse box and the other to 53 or 53b (black or black/yellow), with the motor body grounded it should work. Don't expect 2 speeds or for it to park when you shut it off but you'll have wipers. The OG switch is a complex unit so it'd take 3-4 toggle switches to duplicate it and if you switched on one without turning the other off first you'd get smoke.
