Wiper motor Slow - Fast

After looking for a while why the spitfire switch did not work i found this great page from a vitesse

https://vitessesteve.co.uk/LucasStuff/Triumph-2-speed-wiper-wiring.htm

and decided to try it on my spitfire custom wiring:

 



Earth check
+12 V to slow (5) --> wiper motor slow speed
+12v to hi (3) --> wiper motor fast speed

it works, now test the wiring with the park setting



It works. Now where did in put my windscreen wipers?
