I need to replace just the switch,is it handy to remove instrument cluster?
I read if the forums but links are dead.My understanding is to somehow remove foot panel,unplug switch and pull out?Is it that easy?
Also should I be worried about the steering lock?Our should I? what causes steering to lock?
Attempting job in one hour.

Turn the key one click, then there is that squarish button with hash marks (like knurling) on top, with the key turned that button will push down, then the outer sleeve around that huge connector will slide back and the connector will come off the switch. You need the key in the same position to remove the switch itself, there is a button on each side which have to be pushed in, should be easy to spot them.
