Subject:      How to replace the ignition lock cylinder?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"


I recently purchased a complete lock hardware set from The Bus Depot.  It is
a fine setup.  I don't know if it new or reconditioned but it certainly
looks brand new.  I have installed all the pieces, with only a minor
adaptation on the rear hatch mechanism.  However I am completely stuck
trying to figure out how you get at the ignition cylinder.  I have removed
the black plastic steering columm covers but I see nothing to unscrew.
There is a small plate on the ignition housing, I tried to pry off with a
knife.  Bent the blade and frankly I don't think I am attacking it in the
right place.  Any one out there have a clue what I'm talking about.  I would
appreciate any assistance.


thanks
