Ignition cylinder removal
In the process of replacing the original lock cylinder as it only had 1 key. I have removed from housing and it is not obvious how to remove the cylinder itself?
I have a replicate with 2 keys I want to install, any help is appreciated, I have attached a picture, thanks for the help!!

Re: Ignition cylinder removal
there is three mounting screw holes for the screws that holds the pop out in the dash panel. in one of them holes it has a spring loaded release that you can get to when the pop out is in the out position. simply put a ice pick in the hole and push it in. it will release the tumbler. note, it will only work if the pop out switch is in the on position.

Re: Ignition cylinder removal
unfortunately, I have been to two reputable lock smiths with the blanks sold from Model A vendors-they could not replicate, I believe the blank we just not correct for the key(#) I had

Did you try Dick Crabtree 605-487-7229, if anybody can fix you up he can.

Re: Ignition cylinder removal
Looking at the picture Brum is posting he is using an aftermarket popout
Very hard for those to find a key. |
