In this video, I show you how to replace the ignition on a 1973 Cadillac. This is a relatively simple process, but it is important to follow the steps carefully to avoid damaging your car.

Here are the steps involved in replacing the ignition on a 1973 Cadillac:

Remove the steering wheel.
Remove the ignition switch bezel.
Remove the ignition switch.
Install the new ignition switch.

Make sure to disconnect the battery before you start working.
Use a socket wrench to remove the bolts that hold the steering wheel in place.

I hope this wasn’t supposed to be a how to video because it was pure trash when it came to explaining how you removed anything.

@samridgway9215 says:

Same interior in one i had

@gearhead9943 says:

I’d love to see cold starts of all of your vehicles with the interior view so we can see the procedures on all of them. How many times you pump the gas, choke, etc

@danielerossini408 says:

Thanks for the video. i just bought a 1971 eldorado and i have a question about the fuel gauge. I see that yours fuel gauge is stable even with the power off. I have the same thing. Is this normal or is it a problem? Thanks for your help.

@pugliesesspeedshop says:

The old GM tilt column is always fun… My Jeep XJ has one and it was a treat. Haha!! Congrats on 1k fellas!!!

@DesertRatFabrication says:

Nice fix, I think someone put a slinky behind the steering wheel

@WillsWheels says:

That big ole hood looked like it weighed a ton…LOL. Great Video!

@BigMikesHooptyBarn says:

Ready to roll!

@AndysDogHouse says:

Hey Horsemen. Is it really that cold down there? It has been real hot here except today. Today it is rainy and 65is. Nice job on the Caddy.

@timwindsor03 says:

Awesome video Brothers. Thanks for sharing . Nothing like changing the old stuff. It's a nightmare trying to change the new stuff now. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible day. Much love and RESPECT

@ClaytonCountyHistoryHound says:

Years ago I tried to change the clock spring and ignition in a early 90's Dodge with junkyard parts. I think that's when I learned you can't throw tools far enough to ever break them. You might lose them or they may damage whatever they hit but they don't break. Thanks for sharing and take care. ✌️

@CCAutoWorks says:

This reminds me of when I was a kid pulling my first steering wheel with out a pull I just yanked over and over tell it finally came off and broke my nose

@HFG says:

Are those wheel splines keyed? Sweet ride!

@donaldhalls2189 says:

Simple little fix all the best to yous and your loved ones

@solargarage says:

Getting it done.

@moparnut6286 says:
