Anyone ever replaced a headlight switch on one of these cars?
How hard is it to do, or am I better off having a shop do it?

Its actually pretty easy.
On the bottom of the steering column plastic are 3 7mm bolts. Remove those.
The upper part snaps off, the lower will fall away.
There are two or three 7mm bolts holding the switch in. Take those out (use a wrench not a socket). Unplug old switch, repplace w/ new one.
Installation is the reverse.

Thanks Kardain,
I was imagining having to remove the steering wheel (and airbag) to get to it. Not my idea of fun.
Your way sounds
super easy...

First time I replaced mine, I took out the steering wheel, second time, I used an open-end wrench and it was 10x easier the second time around.
