Question advice needed on variable resistors for LCD

With that diagram everyone has for coupling LCD screens to printer ports;

I notice there are two variable resistors needed for the brightness and contrast of the screen.

1/ I dont know too much about electronics but I've built by own cables before, could anyone tell me what exact parts I need, ie: any particular wattage or type these variable resistors need to be. So I dont feel stoopid walking into Maplins explaining what I need for my project.

I am going to order some $15 non backlit 4x40s from EIO
