You will have to replace the whole TS switch assy. I've replaced SOME small parts in that, but the lever is major and I don't think you'd be successful. > 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? No, just remove the steering wheel and disconnect all the wires, keeping track of where they go. Then pull out the TS switch assy and replace it. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
