instrument bezel
I set the park brake and pull colum shifter down into drive to get it out of my way but haven't had to completely remove a colum (yet). Since the headlight and wiper switches are gonna be removed eventually yo may want to do like I do and just leave them in the car. Either way works. I have connected the amp gauge wires with a small nut and bolt, taped them good and driven the car without instruments for a week or more. The wiper switch will need a grounnd to the dash. Warning... it is possible for the car to strat in reverse or drive while the colum is lowered since linkage is temporary mal adjusted.
