Any advice on where this is located, and how it is removed? Also size, how heavy/awkward is it, in postage terms. I need to get one off for STE.

Cheers

on side of box, passenger side iirc...

Speak of the devil and he shall apear  

It's on the passenger side of the box, held on by 2 screws/bolts.  If the gearbox is off the car it should be a doddle.  If not, you'll need to undo the 2 bolts with a socket (10mm, I think) slide it off the selector, bolt thingy that goes into the gearbox.  You might have to unhook the gear linkage first I think.  And disconect the electrical connector block at the top (this bit is a real bugger to do).

If it's on the car and you have to jack it up, please be careful. The though of people laying under a car rested on stands makes me cringe!!!   I always feel nervous when I'm under one myself.

If you have time and a small torx bit, the switch is held together with approx 6 screws.  Might be worth a look inside to see what condition it's in.  It's quite delecate inside though, so be gentle.

Hope this helps.

Ste.
