Mike,
i've read your post regarding this, in fact i used it as reference the entire time.
many thanks!!! couldn't have done it without you.
you did mention that the ignition lock HAS to be removed and put aside... offhand i didn't see any obvious ways to remove the ignition cylinder...
i'm avoiding fiddling with the steering column, haven't had time to read about it... not enough research.
