There is a chrome ring around the key switch that unscrews and let's u disassemble the whole switch. U may have to use a set of channel locks and wrap them in a cloth not to scratch the chrome ring

Oceanstate401,

Have you installed this kit yet? If you did, was it pretty simple?

not yet it does look simple however i think its better to do the complete coil relocation because you have to move the wiring for the ignition switch so you might as well do all of it and clean it all up.
