Hmmm. After I wrote my question, I looked more closely at the switch and determined I could not do what I was talking about. But your idea is popping out the switch from the front rather than taking off the A/C vent panel first and then undoing the panel underneath that holds the switch assembly. At least that's how I interpreted your way. It seems I would probably break something doing it that way.
