Hello,

I am new here and have been lurking. I have read some other post regarding this switch that have been very helpful. But I need some help installing the switch. Specs.... 2002 Cooper, 5 speed. I can actually get to the old switch, but can't unscrew it in the small space. Here's what I did... I wasn't able to get the airfilter case off, just the top becuz the cases nuts are under something and I cant get to the nut to hold it while I unscrew the screws. After I got the top of the airfilter off I squeezed my arm in there and unplugged the switch, but couldn't get to the nut on the switch to unscrew it. The space is so small I cant get a tool in there, well I can get a tool in there, there is just no place to go once I'm in there. Any suggestions? Is there a tip on how to get the airfilter housing out? Please help, I am so close it is frustrating and my arm is all scratched up. Someone also suggested taking the tire off and I am not sure that is an option. I am not sure I am strong enough to fight with all the machine tighten nuts on the tires.

Thanks,

Dell
