Replacing the 65 backup light switch is a pain in the ***

[ideologist]

The little hex head bolt at the top left corner of the switch body (holding the top half of the bracket down) is a little bastard to reach

1/4" wrench holding a tiny 1/4 drive 9mm socket was able to reach and work it out without taking the dash apart

I didn't bother bolting it back down ha

(I swore a lot more during this process than I have in this post, thank you for reading)

The column is held up to the dash by two studs and nuts - easy to lower the column a tad to access the switch.

I loosened mine but it didn't feel like lowering, I figured I would break something if I forced it. On to tracing the voltages now
