Are you replacing a Ignition Switch or Ignition Control?

Default It's two bolts, that's it!

There's not an easier part to replace on your car--seriously. Disconnect two plugs and unscrew it from the heatsink. You might want to pick up some dielectric grease from AZ also, put it where the ICM meets the heatsink.
