Turn signal lever replacement
Yikes, she snapped right off. I got a new one- but do I have to tear apart the whole steering column to replace it?
Thanks!

Take a look on
http://www.corvettefaq.com/ .
There's some instructions on building a tool to do it without taking the steering column apart.
I've got the same problem. I haven't built the tool yet, though. :crazy:

Wow! Glad to know that I'm not the only guy out there not using turn signals or high beams... :-)
Thanks!

Sure looks like it! It is really rather easy; I'm almost ashamed that I put it off for so long.

Do you have cruise? I was thinking that this may make it a little more difficult?

NO, cruise doesnt make any difference. The hardest part is getting a good grip on the stub when you turn it and pull it out. Takes about 30secs.:thumbs:
PS. I found out how to do this AFTER pulling my column down to turn signal level. :banghead:
:cool: :cool: :cool:

Does someone have a pic of thiers before you put is in? Mine by looking at it does not look broke. It looks like it just came off the end nub.
Thanks

Re: Turn signal lever replacement
this looks like a common problem with the c3s because i also have no turn lever it wasnt on when i bought the car so its off to the vette shop for some parts.
It is really a pain in the butt to turn it on when your being followed my a cop and you dont want to make a mistake. :D
