Ignition Actuator Replacement

I've seen on several threads that I can replace the ignigtion actuator to solve the problem of the ignition/key not returning to the run position after starting. I called the dealer about getting the part (no problem -$10) but he said that I have to pull the steering wheel and disconnect the SRS to do this. Has anyone done an actuator replacement on a 95 F 150? I was hoping to just pull the bottom off the tilt steering column and do it from there, but I don't want to mess with the air bag. Any advice?

Ignition Actuator Replacement

This job reguires pulling the steering wheel and the pivot pins (2 special tools) plus most of the tilt wheel assembly.

Thanks, I'll take it in - another $100 bill to replace a $10 part.
