Spitfire, Steering columb cover plate, removal

[David McHugh]

Hi chaps,

 

Does anyone have any ideas, how to remove the cover plate on the underside of the steering columb that hides the wiring? I have tried to unclip it, that does not seem to be the right way. I have also tried to slide it as there is a hole in the top, it wiĺl not move.

 

Any help would be much apriciated.

You need to release the clamp(two bolts) at the bottom of the cover that holds the column then the cover just lifts away from the location point at the top.
