It sounds like you have researched the job thoroughly and know what you are up against. I've had to replace my switch twice and I agree that it is not a task that you will enjoy. I weigh 190 pounds and I could fit in the space available. Based on your comments, it is likely that you are smaller than me. That will be an advantage. If you have the seats out for reupholstery, that will help.

I don't recommend that you replace the entire ignition assembly. Replacing the switch should solve your problem and you can use the money you save on something else your car is certain to need.

Good luck and let us know how it worked out.
