Default Missing Wiper Relay

In redoing my dash wiring, I have come upon what I believe is missing wiper motor relay. In comparing the wiring diagram with what I have, it appears that there should be a wiper motor relay between #59 and #56, of which there is a group of 4 orange wirenuts.



So my question is, can I wire it up without a relay, and just park the wipers manually, or is it preferable to use the relay. I know that the early cars (pre 266) didn't have a relay, and I am not sure exactly what to expect either way.

Anyone with a little more wiring knowledge than me on this issue, please chime in.

As far as the dash, I removed a 3-position switch (on-off-on), with low being down, and high being up. Should I replace with another 3-position, or should I try and source a rotary?

TIA,

Jim
