I'm replacing my ignition switch. I got to the switch. Now I have to remove it. The Delphi pass-key lll is in the way. Do I have to remove the key cylinder? If so how do I remove it? Then does the pass key come off? After removing the top of the steering colum?

you have to remove the lock cylinder, it is pretty simple to do, first you should see a little hole somewhere on the lock cylinder housing, turn the key to the on position and insert a paper clip in the hole and push while pulling out the lock cylinder.

the switch is held in place by i belive two bezels.
