I've been following the Pelican write up but my car doesn't have the two screws to pull the switch as shown in Pelican figure 10. How do you get this thing out on a '75? Photo of my car attached. Thanks, Rick

I wrote this up a long time ago but can't find the thread. A quickie thread: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...switch++removal
