The pics would be great!!! I've ordered the switch and hope to have my son back in his car soon -- and out of my mine!! Things look tight under there but can the switch be replaced without pulling everything out?

Again, I pulled an electrical switch out of a junkyard car using only a stubby screwdriver. It's tight, but doable. Getting it back in will be tougher. For the sake of simplicity, it may really be best to unlock the ignition and rotate the assembly so that the switch is aimed down and you can actually see the three screws you need to remove and replace.

Pictures pending after I get some coffee and make a run to the parts store.
