Remove steering wheel and upper jacket, remove/disconnect shaft from steering box, remove entire lower jacket tube. Steering column now in your hands, takes a few hours, roughly (will be a bit harder with the steering lock still in place but just take your time and do it right). Remove band that surrounds steering wheel lock assembly, then pry out the section that retains the steering wheel lock and remove the whole thing. Find nearest trash can. ORDER the correct cylinder for your car, everything will then match, will only take a day or two to get the correct one. Will also need the new steering wheel lock and might as well replace the ignition switch (electrical portion) at the same time so I don't have to even TRY to tell you how to get the switch removed. Put it all back together.
