Subject:Ignition Switch Replacement-Not Amused
From:J Stewart

OK, ignition switch replacement, doesn't look like a big deal, shouldn't be really, but never had to do one until now. All goes well until the final step, sliding the housing off the steering column. Stuck on there like you wouldn't believe. Finally get it off, take the old switch out and-wait a ^%$#& second, the old one has two thin metal blade connectors that the new one doesn't!! Do I have the correct switch? I'm guessing not and I'm going to be really ticked if I have to put it all back together with the old switch. When I ordered it (from an on line vendor) I saw there was more than one switch listed-when I asked what the difference was I got "I dunno, most people order this one" Thats the one I got. HELP!!! Thanks, Jeff
