Hi guys, just went to move the car over lunch to put something else in the space and the bloody ignition snapped inside. Any advice before i start trying to fix it later ? I saw a post on here the other week but as per usual the search function isn't working.

Cheers,

AJ

as you have the key you can turn it to position one then place a small drill in the hole in the top of the housing and press the retaining clip then leaver out the barrell

Hi Geoff, I'm struggling to locate the retaining clip. I might be being dippy but I can't see it anywhere ???

Any help would be great ! Cheers,

Have you ever considered that car ownership just might not be for you?

Indeed.. take care... fiddling with your ignition and such in a closed car park could (according to your 'Friend')... but punishable by death!.. or even worst... a big HUG yikeshurl

HEY!!!

I'm sure that inside that callous, heartless, soulless, joyless exterior there's a lovely and beautiful woman...

...it's just that the lovely and beautiful woman was eaten by the miserable cow next door.

you should see a small hole at the top of the housing that locates the barrel the spring clip is inside the hole some housings do not have the hole so when you get your new barrel use it as a template so you can see where to drill it
