its a pain. pull the steering wheel, you will need a wheel puller. the u must take off the turn signal parts and the retaining plate. then there is a release for the tumbler unit, push the release then slide out the old ignition switch. -thorr On the 83 model chev halfton the ignition switch is down on the coloumn closer to the fire wall thers is 4 bolts holding it to the coloumn, remove them and then rotate the switch to remove the rod coming from the ignition lock(where the key goes) and then unplug the wiring harness from it.

How do you replace the ignition switch in a 1987 grand marquis with broken tumbles?
found this, might be the same, Merry Christmas, anyways! :) For a 1988 Mercury Marquis remove bottom shroud from steering column (5 Philips head screws). There is a wire running from the ignition switch to the left side of the steering column; detach it from the coupler (This can be done without a tool). Turn key to ON position until the panel lights come on. There is a small pin near the bottom of the key lock; push it in and pull the ignition switch out (don't panic if the wire seems to be stuck; it will come out). To replace, turn new ignition switch to same position. Push pin on the ignition switch in while sliding it back into the steering column. Reconnect wire and then replace shroud.
