is it possible to use a steering column stalk wiper switch instead of the dash mounted knob on a moke to operate the window wipers ?

Yes.. Can that be used as a substitute for the 6pin knob switch usually in the dash ?

yes you can use that stalk. make sure you hook the brake wire from the wiper motor correctly else it may not park properly.

i just fitted a rover steering column to an 81 moke. was a ning nong to get the brake working properly on the wiper motor.

I'd like to fit the same, but at the least dual stalks

Not as easy as it looks. The pre-1980 column is too big in diameter. You can change columns too, but the lower mount is in the wrong place, so you'll also need to change the pedal box.

To make the Moke wiper motor park with that wiper switch, you need to modify the wiper motor.
