<< I'm presently staring at the indicator stalk and have no idea how to
remove it w/o breaking the SOB. Know you let me know it's $150! I was
going to try force, but not for $150! Somebody, please help. I removed 3
screws out of the metal contact plate after the steering wheel came off
and do not know what to do next. Like I stated in previous post, the
switch circles around the steering wheel spindle and I can get the
plastic circle to move 15-20 degrees away from the plane perpendicular
to the steering shaft, but nothing else. Is it conected to a set of
wires that don't want to let go or is there a screw(s)?
THANKS TO ALL IN ADVANCE,

If you look in the bottom of the plastic housing for the combo switch you
will see a hole. This hole provides access to a screw, you will have to put
your philips screwdriver in this hole pointing towards the shaft and loosen
it, the combo switch is clamped around the spindle (you might have to move
the screwdriver around a bit before you find the screw). Once you do this,
the whole assembly should slide right off the spindle.
