'97 E 300D (W210) ignition tumbler R & R

After reading the horror stories of worn ignition switches having to be drilled out,when mine started to get hard to turn on from time to time, i ordered a new one from the dealer. I was familiar with the tumbler used on the previous W 124 and W 126 (the kind that use the "U" shaped wire to unlock the tumbler) but this new one is different!
I've searched the threads but no mention of the tumbler on a W 210. HELP! Is there a special tool ? What's the secret?
