I just removed mine and reinstalled it. Its pretty self explanitory as you're working on it, but its kind of a pain in the ass.

You need to remove the steering wheel, I believe its a 27mm bolt. Disconnect the horn wire, pull the steering wheel off, then pull the turn signal switch off of the collumn and it should dangle from the connected wires that go the the flasher, then theres two or three screws holding the turn signal contact plate, and then pull that out and it should also still be connected with some wires. Now I believe the screw that retains the switch should be accessable, remove that and push the switch out to the right and p the wires out. Make sure the steering lock isn't engage or you'll be cursing yourself.


I removed the entire collumn head to repaint it, and it helped to have it out when feading the wires back through. If your collumns already out.


Pros speak up if I missed anything or I gave bad advice, I admit I'm no expert.
