Wink Billet Specialties turn lever and flasher knob ?

I just ordered the turn signal lever and knob along with the hazard knob and bowtie shifter knob
Anyway I have no problems with the turn knob or the shifter knob, my question is about the hazard knob.
How do you remove and install a new one?
Do you just remove that screw and it comes off?
Some details on removal and installation would be helpful.
Im sure its easy and Ill figure it out, but the boards slow and I figured Id through something out here

Ohh yeah, anyone know where to find the ignition key release lever in aluminum?

Thanks!

Are you just wanting to spend all your free time polishing????

I've never tried to remove the hazard pull, I'll look at it tonight and try to take it off. I'll let you know.

The hazard pull is easy...just get a phillips screwdriver and unscrew it.

Thought so, wasnt sure though
I would still like to have a picture of how the grant steering wheel horns should be wired. I look at what I have and just dont get it. Im missing some stuff and dont know what. If someone could post a picture of their grant wheel horn installed and everything I would greatly appreciate it Im gonna try to dig into the truck this weekend, but I doubt Ill have the turn lever by then, so Ill wait to go into the column for that.

EDIT:
Ill just carry some polish and a rag, so when Im stuck in a line or at a stop light I can get my polish on

For the curious heres a few pictures


Little things make all the difference!

Did you just say you're gonna polish your knob at the stop light? That's just wrong!

Dupli-color Metalcast paint goes great on all the other chrome goodies in the truck,check it out at your local hardware store.we use it on all our race sleds to give them kind of a custom look.the metalcast paint is exposed to high heat and extreme cold and seems to stay looking nice.this stuff gives a really nice colored chrome look to anything.

I have wipers on the dash
See it kinda pays to have a stripped down slightly older model.
I hate Fedex, they dont have jack on UPS's service. UPS will hit my house 2 times a day for one package if im not there. But Fedex will come once and leave a note for me to pick it up at their location or sign and take all responsibility. Well either way I should have the stuff today I should have had it yesterday.

I don't think they make a model specific wiper knob but here are a couple universals:
Here are a couple style from Billet Specialties:

Not a knob - I have mine on the turn signal lever. I want a cover that goes over the turnsignal, CC, & wipers.
