I know how to remove the keyway from the ignition switch. I just can't seem to remove the switch itself from the dash. Does the bezel unscrew or is there a trick or special tool required to remove the electronic ignition switch from the dash?
Thanks for any help!

 

You can go to laurel mountain mustangs site and it shows a good pic of bezel . 67 takes special tool, but yours is made diff. maybe pic will help

 

might help to squirt some light oil on the threads and let soak.

 

I have a new ignition switch and ignition plug to put on the car. The current one just has individual wire plugs crimped on it and a bunch of electrical tape making a mess out of the back of it. A home-made wiring job done by some kid in the past, probably trying to wire a radio or something without a wiring manual.
The new switch looks like it has a spring that would hold it in place (press in and turn the bezel/collar) Is this correct? I don't have a new bezel that attaches to the switch, but there does not seem to be any threads to screw it onto.
I really don't want to mess with the back/wires since it looks like they may break off very easily and with the position of the connectors behind the dash, I can't tell which wire would go where.
Do I push in on the ignition switch from behind while rotating the bezel on the outside/front of the dash?

 

fwir must rotate bezel w/o damaging it.
i had to use diy tools since i couldn't find special tool (pre-gore internet).
maybe someone has done it recently who can chime in?

 

You have to hold the bezel against the dash, and push on the switch and rotate. The bezel is held from rotating by a little keyway, so turning the switch will quickly disconnect the two.

I puzzled over this one for a while before I finally figured it out, don't feel bad.

 

does keyway register tabs interface dash or bracket behind dash?

65 and 67 are different fwir.
