No no no.. you dont need to remove the wheel. all you need to do is get your key and a punch or wire hanger. underneith the ign tumbler you will see a little pin hole. insert the punch or hanger in the hole and turn the key counter clockwise just past the ACC postion while pushing lightly with the punch. Once you feel the tumbler stop hard pull it out. Done deal.

No not that i can think of.

Only other thing to do is to drill out that pin.

Pull out your emg blinkers switch.

Look under that towards iginition switch and you'll see a hole.

Drill that out and then the iginition switch should pull out with a good tug.
