Wow! Crazy Nate's description and photos for the ignition lock switch saved my butt. Note that the diamater of the wire is critical. Too loose in the slots and it will not release the cylinder. Too big and you can't get it in. Likewise, the 45 degree cutoff is critical as the end of wire must slide over the flange that locks the cyliner into place to release it. It also must slide over the housing retainers to release them.

Here is an additional lesson learned the hard way. When the lock cylinder and the housing come out, they come apart. I was curious about how the housing fit into place. To make sure I got it lined up correctly, I reinserted it, without the lock cylinder, and, guess what? It locked back into place, but without the lock! S---! It took me 30 minutes of studying the arrangement to get it back out.

Thanks Nate.
