the bearing has a rubber on so it wants to hold on but my bearing did not break nor did the rubber tear. i think i actually may have laid it on a bench and used a rubber mallet.
if you are asking about the bearing, i think i just tapped the shaft on the floor and it all came loose. there is a spring inside and lots of dried grease.
looks more like a jamb switch, im thinking trunk light? open deck lid switch opens light comes on. if it was a glove box light that switch would be in the fender.
