Changing steering columns

Jul 14, 2003 1 Replies

Has anybody ever tried to change a steering column from one year to another? For instance, I have a 1960 and would like to use a column from just about any later year because the turn signal switch on the 1960 is....well, it sucks, breaks easily, and is expensive to replace. Then again, if anybody had an old one that actually had a handle on it.....



Thanks, Shane


I installed a later one (maybe 71) in my 66 Beetle. I wanted the locking feature and I also hated the turn signal switch on the earlier ones!. :-)
