1979 Corvette Steering Column again
I'm starting to make some progress on reassembling my steering column after replacing the turn signal arm pivot but I can't figure out where these two pieces go. I think that once I find out where they go, I can finish rebuilding the column. If anyone knows where these pieces go, help me out. And I already have a breakdown of the column, but the drawing is a little too small for me to see.
- A roll pin and some sort of clip-I think the clip goes into a slot near where the ignition lock cylinder goes but I'm not for sure.?

The long pin holds the wiper switch in place and the clip hold the key in buzzer into place there should be another part that goes with the clip.Hope this helps sorry I have know way to post some pic at this time. Good Luck

guappy is batting 990. The pin is the pivot for the t/s lever- you pull on it and it operates the dimmer switch (he's really close). THe spring looking thing is in fact the key warning buzzer, but the plastic insulator is missing.
I'm guessing you have Jim Shea's papers and/or the FSM.
