Thanks for the vid, definitely helped watching this before doing it. I was
able to get my hand up underneath and get my hands right on it. The wire
harness will stretch just enough to pull it out a bit, and give you access
. Remove the ground (bottom single wire) first. Be gentle on the plastic
where the large retaining nut rests in.
At one point i thought i would have to do the same thing But.I eventually I
had to lay in the front seat upside down and snake my arms up under and
thru the dash. it probably helps to be some what on the thin side to get
your arms up thru the dash and get hold off the switch.
Because I did this procedure 8+ years ago 0n my 95 I tried your way
thinking it might be easier, but had to resort to pulling off the top of
the steering column (t-20 torx bits, the inst cluster after the dash trim &
the plastic inst gauge cover, marking top of the front-unclipping gauge
wiring harness by the drivers left hand. All else was phillips screws of
diff types(document which go where), then u can unclip from above the 2
plastic light switch clips & plug where u can see it. 1 hour job.
Yes, but they would go out and i would have to turn the switch off then on
again to get them to come back then it started getting worse to the point
that the lights would turn off more often and i would have to work the
switch many times to get them to come back on.once I replaced the switch,
the problem was solved and the new switch was stiffer compared to the old
one.hope that helps.

Glad it helped i thought it was a good video to post because it is kinda
difficult to do if you don’t know all the details.

Yes, but they would go out and i would have to turn the switch off then on
