Left the elecric wiper motor "as is" - it ran too slow anyway on 6 volts, and seems to work fine on 12. And by leaving the 6V heater motor, on "high" the fan now blows heat (and sounds...) like a hand dryer in the men's room - nice on cold days! (Not certain how long the blower might last however - the truck only gets used in summer.) 6 volt horns seem to work fine on 12 volts too.
