The electrical portion of the ignition mechanism is attached to the very rear of the assembly.

You pretty much have to stand on your head in the drivers footwell to remove the two (?) screws that hold the part you are replacing. I have only done it once but I don't remember having to remove the instrument cluster to get the job done but I'll bet having access to both the top and the bottom of the area would be a big help. The correct length screwdriver (found by trial and error) was necessary as well

I do remeber while doing it that it would have been easier when I was 14 years old and more limber.

Good luck,

Randy
