installing ignition lock cyliner 1993 300E
 
I am trying to install lock cylinder,cover, housing, and swith on a 1993 300E. I have one day off a week, so I am trying to conquer this tomorrow. I would like any advice, warnings, or step-by-step procedures before I get started.

Good stuff!

Using the correct diameter very stiff wire is critical.
