Default Ignition Switch......HELP

I'm trying to finish up my 12" Yaffe install on my '13 Ultra and it's one thing after the other. I'm just about to throw in the towel.

I must have tightened the nut on the black plastic stem that the ignition switch fits down over, Has anyone ever done that and how did you fix it? Is it hard to replace?

I also have gotten the rotation out of whack on the ignition. I made a tool to replace the alignment tool and somehow I have it out of sequence.

What do I do on both issues?


Thanks in advance.

misaligned ignition switch cams is now question # 5 on the forums-

watch the you tube videos, refer to the almost daily threads on this.
