Insert key, put pressure counter clockwise, insert pin in little hole while continuing to rotate the key counter clock wise and it should move, pull pin out and cylinder pops out on key.

Process should be same for both styles as follows:

there is a little hole on the front of the switch, put the key in and turn it to the right to the acc. position. next push something small and hard into the hole you will fell it depress then turn the switch counterclock-wise until it stops, you may have to do this several times until it is freely moving. Then using the key remove the switch through the front of bezel.
