I have to replace the steering column in my truck due to the bearings in the column being worn out and was going to reuse my ignition switch in the old column for the new replacment. I do not have the key for the ignition switch to turn it to the "run" postion to extract the switch for the new replacment which I got from the bone yard. How do I get the Ig. Switch without a key. Is there a easy out?
