This is the pull out switch. Disconnect the battery pos. side is good. Then remove the panel under the lights, under and behind the pull out switch, you will feel the back side of the switch, disconnect the wire harness. There is a little button to press as you pull the switch all the way out, find that little button and press it. The switch will then come all the way out. Remove the old switch, small nut on the outside to remove, then it just pop's out. Install the new, and just push the rod in, it will lock by itself. Connect battery and check it out.

How do you replace the headlight switch in a 1988 Ford F-150?
First remove the wiper and headlight switch knobs. They will pull off with force, then you will under stand how they go back on. Remove cover under dash to view fuses. Take two screw out that hold the fuse panel. The dash cover around the wiper and headlight switch actually pops off when pryed on. Once this cover is off remove the nut around the headlight switch and it will pull out, but you need to get the fuse panel out of the way. The switch it self has a pull out bar that can also be taken out by depressing the button brad on the switch itself.
Your 1988 Volkswagen Cabriolet headlights quit working you have checked the headlight bulbs and fuses for the headlight circuit and are ok What are other possibilities and how to do?
It is possibly a switch problem. If you can get to the switch, put a jumper wire to the two contact points (hot side and ground) with the key on the lights should come on and then you know the problem is the switch. psg

Is there a simple way to change the headlight switch on a 1988 topaz with ac The fuse panel is blocking your way to the switch Is there another path?
No, there is nothing simple here. Just small hands, dis-connect the battery, and remove the panel where the head light switch is. When you reach underneath from behind, right on the switch, there is a little spring like button, when you press this the head light pull rod will come out. Now you can remove the switch, unplug the power supply, and replace the switch. When all that is done, just insert the head light rod, push it in and it will lock. Replace panel. Not really much space to work in. Good luck.
