I am unable to turn ignition with current key and switch, I have a new ignition switch/key, but how do I get the column cover off and old ignition out??

Hi:
You need to remove the steering wheel and part of the steering column to access the switch. Because of the air bag, I would recommend having it done by a trained tech. If you do it, be careful and make sure that you leave the battery disconnected for at least 15 minutes before starting the work.

Let me know if you have other questions.
