Hi there,

I am not sure if the 97 is the same as the 92, but with a 92 it is simple; but expensive.
On the 92 you pull the center part of the steering wheel off, (yes, grip it and pull it off).
Then use a 17mm socket and take the steering wheel off, (after pulling the
nut off, you have to wiggle and pull the steering wheel in all directions while pulling backwards; don't hit yourself in the face).
Then you undo 6 screws, from the bottom, on the steering column cover. This breaks into 2 parts; one that will fall off the bottom and the top part you will have to maneuver out.
The headlight-combination switch is revealed at this point.
Undo the 4 screws that mount it to the column.
Pull it straight off.
There is a panel below the column that pops off; pop it off now.
Undo the wiring harness clip. (possibly cut a zap strap that holds the wiring to the column).
Put in new combination switch in reverse.
Obstacles:
The cost of the combination switch; 2 - 500 bucks depending.
When putting the cover back around the column; the rubber boots that go in the holes can be tricky, view them to see how they fit properly.
Put the steering wheel back on straight; otherwise you will be constantly annoyed.
You will constantly honk the horn as you do this job; or maybe that's just me.
Hope this helps
