Once you have the whole switch/cyl assembly removed, you need to insert the ignition key and turn it to the run position. This will allow the cylinder to be disengaged from the switch.

I agree locksmith it's a pain with those tumblers again youtube has videos but its a pain. Id Take your old keys and switch to a lock smith and give them the new one and say I want this key to fit in my new cylinder. I paid 30 bucks
