Does anyone know the procedure to replace the tumbler in a W108/67 250S ignition switch? I have the assembly out of the car. I can't tell how the shiny cover comes off. It's stuck in position 1 and the key won't go in more than 3/4 of the way. I see a little radial hole in the slot that would only be visible in position 1.

The wrecking yard wants $120 for a replacement ignition assembly and I can't get to a locksmith until tomorrow. Hopefully the locksmith is old enough to know that model designators used to start with numbers. What's the good word on this?

Thanks,
