You don't need to buy a new ignition switch......

Just buy the cylinder.....or buy the door and ignition cyl set.....

That way you'll have locks that match when done.

The little hole in the ignition (assuming this is a 67-72 truck) is the removal tool. Simply use a paper clip in the little hole.......a no good key in the cylinder and while pushing in with the paper clip pull out on the lock with the key.

The key being the wrong one will pull on the tumblers inside and help with the removal.

Now with that out you could use a screwdriver to slip in the slot and start the vehicle.
