Ignition switch
« on: 24 January 2012, 21:20:16 »
Is the ignition switch only held on by two bolts? When removing any points to watch out for?

What do you want to do? The barrel comes out with nothing more than the key & a small pin ......... http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=90590.0

and the switch itself ........... http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=90601.0

It might 'only' be bolted to the column, but the bolts are shear bolts ie the top bit breaks off leaving you with nothing (proper) to unscrew them with.  :y :y
