The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - HELP! Changing the turn-signal switch

I recently replaced the switch in my 72 with tilt. No way to get the new wires through with the half moon connector on without disassembling the column. I decided to de pin the connector. That was a pain in itself. I couldn't get the connectors out with a paper clip. I had to use a pAir of forceps that I had previously sharpened down to get the clips to release. Each connector has two on the sides, not one on top like all other connectors I've worked on..
