Default Light Switch/ Horn Button pops out

Hey
On my new toy for old boys a 31 Ford A pops the Light Lever / Horn Button including the shaft to Switch out. Anybody knows how it's held in place?
Thanks and regards René

There is a small C clip that holds the spring and spider in place on the bottom of the horn/light switch rod. You'll need to unsnap the bail wire from the switch body, then lift that out of the way. If the C clip came off be prepared for the 3 small parts to fall out when you remove the switch body. The repro C clips should be test fit to the rod before you fight with the spring and spider to hold them compressed while you install the C clip.
