[T3] Turn Signal Assembly Repair/Replace


Hello all.

First, I would like to offer my condolensces to Leon and his family.

The turn signal lever has broken in my 69 Squareback.  I removed the steering wheel to
find the bottom and tops of the C-shaped shifter had broken.  The bottom broke clean and
the top shattered.  I could manually make the signals work with the mechanism on the
right side, albeit it could use some cleaning or lube, it's tight. Electronically the
flashers, signals and high/low switch works.  The only thing broken is the internal 'C'
part of the lever.  -----C

Can I just replace this or would I be better off to replace the entire assembly?  Would I
be better off finding a used assembly or new, in terms of quality?  

Also, to access and unhook to wiring to remove the turn signal assembly, do I just need
to undo the two hex bolts under the steering column?  I lost my Bentley somewhere in my
apartment.  Although I took a few weeks off from the T3 and perhaps I moved it out of
site then.  Anyway...

Thanks for your help.
--Jim
