Title: Ignition switch removal

Kurt..The method you describ should work? I use a small allen as the depress wire to remove the  key-lock cylinder.. I just went out and checked my 64&65 the access hole is at the two 0clock and when turned to the Accy position it's at the top 12:00 .... you insert the wire to depress the unlocking pin and you shoudl be ablet opull the Key cylinder out.... Please  dont do the slid hammer thing, ,you'll end you with the Whole ignition switch hanging from your slid-hammer and a gaping hole in your dash bezel ! ----- Original Message ----- From: K. Kaya To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 7:51 PM Subject: [Chevelle-List] Ignition switch removal How does one remove an ignition switch (key) from a ‘64 dash? Chilton book states: put switch into ACC position, insert wire into small hole in face of lock, push on said wire to depress plunger, and continue turning key until the cylinder can be removed.  Then off comes the bezel nut and out comes the switch. I have two small holes in the face of my ignition switch, have depressed the plunger and can only turn the switch a few millimeters past the ACC position. Any tricks from the pros? I could always do the “Gone in  60 seconds” method of screw-in/slide hammer it out method, but I was hoping to retain the original key switch. Thanks, Kurt ‘64 convert. in resto
