Question Turn signal column?

Is it possible to convert a '54 non turn signal column to factory turn signal?
Does it need any modification, or just have to buy an original lever and switch?

You will have to pull the steering wheel, it fits in bell. The holes should be there to fit the switch. Don't forget the cancel clip.

I checked it today, found no holes.
Could somebody post me a photo of a factory setup?
Thanks!

Take another picture of your column from the top looking down towards floor.
There will be 2 larger holes on left and 2 small holes, I can see 1 0f the small holes in this picture.

Oh, I was looking for the holes on the side of the cup not in the bottom.
Thanks, it's clear now!

What do you think, will a '56 Big job lever fit my F100 column?

Great photos Kevin!

I don't want to hijack my own thread, but could you please send me a few close up photos of your panel tail lights?
I have some alignment problem.
