Howard, I was wondering the same thing about whether there was a slot but can't tell without taking it apart. If I have to go that route, it will be on my next visit when it's warmer!

Anyway the rigidly-clamped piece (detent plate?) is in the group called BRACKET ASSEMBLY-SELECTOR LOCK in the parts book but I was taking as being only limit stops for the lever when it is apparently much more than that. Tomorrow I'll loosen its clamps to see if there is something obvious and may drive out the pin too.

If necessary, I'll pull out the column from the parts car as the dash has been removed and the column not attached except at the gearbox so will be easier and will allow me to see what I am looking for.

The smaller rods that the drawing shows running parallel to the column - are they in the center of it? I can see clear through now that the horn wire is out so not sure where to look for these and am trying to avoid removing the whole column just yet unless absolutely necessary.
