  • wiper/indicator stalk removal

    i am in the middle of replacing my wiper and indicator stalks, so far i've got the sterring wheel and top collumn cover off but how does the bottom cover come off it looks like it's attached to the metal ring that contacts with the horn and how are the stalks held to the collumn shaft.
    i've tried to find previous posts but couldn't find 1 relating to my problem
    cheers chris

    See pictures;
    My 95 S2 has an allen headed bolt on the clamp, my 93 TDi has a pozi headed bolt on the clamp. Yours will more than likely have a pozi if I'm reading your previous posts right in that you have a cq20v??
    Either way, it's one or the other, both are in the same position.
    Once off, you'll see easy enough how to remove the stalks from the clamp, then separate the stalks.

      Brilliant timing!

      I am just about to do this too! Does the steering wheel have to come off or is it just easier to do the rest?

          It's much easier than this on the RS. The bottom half just comes off with a couple of screws on the front face.
          The collar just holds in the stalk assembley.

              all done, ended having to strip the wiper/ hazard stalk and swap the insides some of the contacts had broken and had to fit my old wiper switch arm to the new unit because it didn't have the computer at the end, ooooh what fun on new years day with a hangover, cheers for the help mate.
