Default Class C satellite airport, when to switch to squawk VFR?

my FBO is a satellite airport within class C. (the outer ring,
pattern altitude 700ft below class C)
while talking to approach i call "have airport insight" while still
being in class C.
they advise "squawk VFR"
can I 1200 immediately or do I have to get out of class C and then
switch?
thanks


If they instruct you to "squawk VFR," then squawk VFR. If they wanted
you to wait, they would instruct you to "squawk VFR upon exiting class
C."
