Dead End on Ignition Switch Replacement

[hayes myers]

Steering wheel removal is easy...and makes doing the I/C easier as
well...which may prevent damaging of connectors and/or the IC itself. I did
mine 3 times... having the 24mm socket makes doing the wheel a breeze. i got
it out with the wheel on the first time... and decided to try with wheel off
on second attempt due to frustration the first time. anyway, either way
works.
cheers!
