Default Replacing ignition switch

Can anyone tell me how to take the ignition switch out of a 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 3.1 liter? I already have the steering wheel and turn signal switch taken off but I can't figure out how to get the tilt assembly apart? There are 2 screws that sit flush with the assembly that have threads in the middle of them. Does anyone also know what type of tool is used to take this out. Pics are posted. Thanks

I think this has torx bolts down in the column. Can you get the plastic off or at least get it to slide away from the tilt-wheel joint?

I don't think you need to remove all that. Isn't the switch on the lower half?

I thought I'd better look and here'* the exploded view of the column.

Curious: Zman88, did you get this figured out?
