Re: need help
you must pull the key cylinder out first and to do that you will need a paper clip bent straight turn your ignition into accesory position insert paper clip into hole on front of key cylinder and push in as far as it will go and turn key past accesory as your pulling lock cylinder out then you can unscrew the bezel

Re: need help
turn the key to acc (left) then stick a paperclip into the little hole in the key tumbler face. the tumbler should then pull out and then the bezel will spin the rest of the way off.

Re: need help
it can be a real pain in the 12 bolt to get out. Sometimes you have to wiggle or jiggle, and hold your tongue just right as you spew 4 letter words.
Then you'll go have a smoke (even as a non smoker you may want one) and when you come back and try again, it'll just pop out into your hand. Also, personally, I prefer a small allen wrench ovr a paperclip. |

Re: need help
turn it as far to the left as you can then insert the paper clip into the small hole in the front and push in there is a button in there that has to be pushed in before it will go any further to the left once that button is pushed in turn to the left and pull out it can be a pain sometimes to get it out but just have patience and it will come out for you

Re: need help
