What's the easy way to install a turn signal switch by taking the column apart or is there a easy way to do it.

yes it's easy if that's what you were asking. Remove the wheel, the lockplate, hazard button, signal stalk, canceling cam, 3 screws, and the connector. It might be easier if you loosen the column a little bit but it isn't necessary. Tie some mechanics wire around the connector and snake it out. Wrap the mechanics wire around the new one and put it in.
