Removing Ignition Switch 444-544

I want to replace the ugly, generic replacement ignition switch I have in my PV with something more authentic looking and have found a 122 parts car with a intact armored coil and switch. Before I have at it, are there any particular tricks to getting the switch out of the dash, or the coil off the firewall, for that matter. I have found lots of advice on how to deal with broken keys and how to get the cylinder out, but none as to how to remove the switch from the dash. Do I need to take the core out, or is it just a matter of unscrewing the bessel and pushing the switch through? The answer will, probably, be obvious once I take a look at the situation, but the donor car is 50 miles away and I'd like to be prepared when I get there. Thanks.
Bob S.
