Removing head light switch

[Author nameAuthor names are only available to PAS members.]

I am in the process of rewiring my 1937 1702 12 cyl coupe. I would like to remove the light switch without damaging it. Is it as simple as removing the pull knob and then releasing the “catch” underneath or is there more to it?

On the back side of the dash is a washer and nut on a threaded shaft that compresses and holds the switch.  The knob can be removed by unscrewing a set screw.
