You can also take the bolt out of the clamp that clamps the lock housing to the sheetmetal tube, bend the clamp open and take it off, then go after the tube itself (the part with the hole in it for the little pop out pin you guys are grinding on) so you can pull the housing out of the column. This is easier to do with the whole column removed. After that it's not hard to get the tube back in to shape and the clamp put back over the tube. Once done it's really as secure as it ever was.

Also, remove the transponder from the panel, I used a small plastic wedge to pry it off of the ignition lock once you use a small screwdriver to pull the rubber "flange" out, the transponder will pop right off...

That part is the antenna, not the transponder, the transponder is in the key, it's what this antenna reads.
