1991 350 sd headlight switch

I'm needing to replace my headlight switch and was wondering if anyone has done this on this car? (Access doesn't look very good) Any info greatly appreciated.

I think I have one in the shop from my '91 350SDL, if you need one PM me.

Seems that pulling the underpanel was necessary, not sure on the bolster though. IIRC the 126 headlamp switch is plugged in (unlike the screw-terminal 124 switch) so you can unplug/plug in blindly. Anyone remember this part for certain on a late 126?

It just unplugs / replugs. To get mine out I just removed the big nut under the knob, removed the trim piece, then removed the switch.

Hey, thanks for the info. Got it replaced. The trim below doesn't just come loose, but I managed.
Jeff, thanks for the offer of the switch, but I've got a 90 350sdl parts car that I removed it from.
