[Roadsters] Ignition switches

[Gary and Cindy Ault]

Dan,

The Nissan parts manual isn't very clear on the application of ignition 
switches, at least not to me.

My guess is that if you exchange the switches, steering lock assemblies and 
the plastic trim, they will interchange.  I think you will have to drill out 
the screws/bolts which hold the steering lock assembly to the column.

FYI, Rallye sells a replacement switch and lock assembly which they say will 
work on all '68 to '70 cars, but wiring harness terminals may require 
rework.

Anybody else out there care to weigh in on this question?
