Need to remove ignition switch from an Automatic C5. See posts saying remove the center console, knee bolster under drivers side then several torx screws on the instrument panel to get the plastic trim off in front of the switch. Have previously loosened center console to work on the shifter. What are the minimum things I have to remove to get the ignition switch out? Anyone have pictures or a link to this disassembly?

What if I just want to get to the 2 fine white wires which go to the sensors for the key pellet in the lock cylinder?
Have proper resistor value to bypass VATS and would like to ignore key pellet.

The VATS 2 wires do not go to the electrical switch but to the key mechanical cylinder. Not at home with my links. I will try to send you some info when I get home. Since these feed to the BCM, you could install a jumper near that location if you wanted to.
