Maybe. If you remove the plate you'll let the cancel 
cam move out farther and change the tension on the
bearing spring. I'm not sure the retaing clip will hold
the cancel cam in without the plate. You would have 
a hard time re-assembling the steering column
without the plate. I'd remove the bolt spring and/or cut 
off the bolt (rod). I think that diaper pin spring you 
mentioned is the key buzzer switch. I don't own a 
manual trans car with a locking column. All of mine
won't lock unless they are in park.
