Subject:Ignition Lock...not switch
From:Bob Stevens

After consulting the archives it appears the way to remove the ign. lock
from the cast housing is to drill a small hole in approximately the area
where the flat spring is located on the cylinder/lock. I have the new lock
cylinder so it's pretty easy to estimate where to drill by holding it up to
the lock housing when it's out, which appears to be on top of it. Is this
correct? Anyone done this? By the way, getting that plastick shim/spacer off
the steering column was the most time consuming of all when trying to get at
the switch/lock. Funny thing, my radio is now not coming on right away
unless I jiggle the key in the lock cylinder. Any help appreciated.
