[W126 Coupe] headlight switch

[Axel Wulff]

You'll need to replace the entire steering column piece. There are no repairable parts in the stalk itself.
 
I got mine from Jonathan about a year ago. The price was ~$150 then.
 
To install you'll need to:
- Remove the steering wheel (careful with the airbag)
- Remove the panel below the steering wheel
- Remove the knee bolster (a real PIA....)
- Remove the old steering column stalk (slides down the steering column
- Slide the new part on
- Thread the cables (2) through the steering column surround and plug in underneath the instrument cluster (might want to push out the instrument cluster for a better look)
- Re-assemble in reverse order.Regards, Axel J. Wulff610-731-5453 Cellular610-572-4611 Home

Has anyone done this, and what does it entail?RJS
