Ignition switch...

How to remove ignition switch? I mean how to remove, clean and installed the same way, without cutting or damage anything? Is it possible? or I need new bolts, washers etc...?
I found there are two torx bolts that hold ignition switch, is it possible to just unscrew them?
My ignition switch probably is dirty and wet inside after few years of use and a lot of motorcycle clean ups.
When I turn key on, sometimes got something like electrical connection in ignition switch is not in contact and brakes a little.
What about the access to the screws that I need to drill out? Do I need to remove any other parts?

Manual doesn't say how to remove ignition switch!
This is why I ask someone who do this before?

Mine screwed out very easily, with a pair of bent -tip needle nose pliers. Try it, you may be as lucky!

Thanks for Your help. I really don't understand why it happens. Ignition switch loosing electrical connection inside from time to time when I move key to "on" position, but mechanically is still ok.
