I'm trying to replace a failing tumbler in my 124. I have made the tool per the instructions here and it worked to remove the black steel bezel, but the tumbler didn't come with it. I thought if the bezel came off the tumbler was supposed to come with it. What else could be hanging up the tumbler from coming out? Is there another step before I pull it out? The lock has become loose enough that I don't dare remove the key, I just lock the car with a spare key. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
