Abstract
It is an object to provide structure for mounting stoke switches, easy to be assembled, capable of exchangeably mounting stoke switches having the same function or different functions to a steering column to enable them to be exchanged. The first and second stoke switches have proximal portions capable of being mounted to a steering column by extracting and inserting, and operating levers extending from the proximal portions respectively, and there are provided connector units, which are made connectable to connector units provided on the lateral sides of the steering column in such a manner that when the first and second stoke switches are extracted from and inserted into the steering column, the connector units on the steering column side discriminate between the first and second stoke switches.
