47 Coupe Tom Posted July 16, 2021 Report Share Posted July 16, 2021 Hi again, everyone - my next step is to R&R the ignition switch in my '47 Club Coupe. Unfortunately, I got the car with no keys whatsoever. I have a new assembly coming from Andy's, but since it's not here yet I don't know how it's held in to the dash. I don't see a threaded trim ring or anything on the outside of the chrome center panel. Can anyone advise as to what I am in for? Since my recent health scare I am probably not supposed to be hanging upside down under the dash for any length of time. Thanks in advance, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plymouthy Adams Posted July 16, 2021 Report Share Posted July 16, 2021 look for a screw locking the switch to the bezel...loosen screw and slide the switch rearward and out.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young Ed Posted July 16, 2021 Report Share Posted July 16, 2021 Look straight up from the bottom of the chrome switch panel to see the screw Plymouthy described. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
47 Coupe Tom Posted July 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2021 Thank you! Is there generally enough slack in the harness to be able to change it out? What was the combination of keys originally supplied? Was it - Ignition / Door lock, then Trunk/Glove box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Moo Cow Posted July 17, 2021 Report Share Posted July 17, 2021 Just now, 47 Coupe Tom said: Thank you! Is there generally enough slack in the harness to be able to change it out? What was the combination of keys originally supplied? Was it - Ignition / Door lock, then Trunk/Glove box? I believe the slack will depend on if everything under there is stock or not. My ignition on my 48 d24 was all stock wiring and it had just enough length to back the ignition out and hang down. Kind of finicky to get everything off but easily doable. Pretty sure it's door/ignition, not sure about glove and trunk. I did have a new ignition key made from a local locksmith when I pulled my ignition, only cost me $30, but that key does not work on my doors so who knows.
