Default Ignition Switch/Lock

Is there a new trick to removing/ reinstalling the ignition switch on the 14's? I'll be looking to remove the fairing switch housing to put on new handlebars, and remember spotting some kind of reference to a new style ignition switch?

#1 I just took mine off a few days ago to add a switch. I thought it was easier then on the 05 Glide.

#2 SW Fla, small world
I was just looking at online maps, I'm riding that way Mid-July, to visit my son who has yet to realize he's spending his inheritance @ FGCU.

That cover comes off without removing the switch on the new bikes.

FGCU is an excellent school, I know some people there, both students and staff. Be ready for some real HEAT in July down here.

Yeah I guess I should have mentioned no need to remove the IGN switch.

I used to live near Melbourne, so the heat is no problem.
I'm so looking forward to the roadtrip
