On my Amazon, the only way to remove entire switch is to get that lock cylinder out of there first. I'm not sure how you can remove cylinder without a key, since you need to turn key to certain position, before you can depress button on cylinder and pull it out.
Also, there are 2 philips head screws directly underneath switch, which screw into lower lip of metal dash. Bezel doesn't screw out, lock cylinder holds it tight against dash metal.
On some later Volvo's there is a lower dash (knee) pad which covers up those screws, and would have to be removed first. Grab it if it's in good shape!
Coil bolted into firewall on my wagon, the socket attachment which fits is labeled 7/16". My other Amazon has 2 philips head screws holding it in. Doubt that is original.
People/ mechanics make modifications to the cars over the years, so be prepared for anything/ everything. Bring assortment of socket sizes and screwdrivers, helps if that lower knee pad is installed. Also bring some PB Blaster just in case anything is frozen.
If the dash on donor car is trashed anyways, maybe you can cut metal (with hacksaw?) from lower dash edge up to ignition switch hole, pull metal apart, and remove switch assembly in that manner. Kind of extreme however, there has to be easier way, which I can't think of at moment. Coffee time.
