Debbie 1 Report post Posted September 4, 2019 I installed a new ignition switch yesterday, went to start the car, the entire switch turned around inside the dash Having problems keeping the tab on the switch in the bracket slot When I have the switch in the slot and go to screw on the retaining nut it slips out very frustrating Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mach1 Driver 560 Report post Posted September 4, 2019 WCCC has a tool that may be of help- then you can grab the switch with one hand while you thread on the nut with the tool in your other hand: 14964 Tool - Ignition Lock Cylinder Bezel Nut - New ~ 1969 Mercury Cougar _ 1969 Ford Mustang ( 1969 Mercury Cougar, 1969 Ford Mustang ) at West Coast Classic Cougar :: The Definitive 1967 - 1973 Mercury Cougar Parts Source.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danno 128 Report post Posted September 5, 2019 I got mine installed with a small straight screwdriver in the small openings on the front. It is tricky, but can be done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
