This time removing my dash panel (third time in 7 months) I had a REALLY hard time getting the knob & shaft out of the light switch. It's not easy accessing the release button while the switch is still attached to the panel. Was finally successful, and now that it's out, I removed the switch from the car and stuck the knob & shaft back in.....and even with no access issues, it's damn near impossible to get it back out. Is there some trick, or do I need a new switch (the one in the car is not a Delco Remy original).

As an aside, I have three other headlight switches (original Delco Remy items) that I've had for years, from either 69 Impalas or 69 Chevelles, which look identical to the one from my 73 Camaro. All three of them still have the knob & shaft in them.....and I can't get any of them out either.
