Attempted to do this today, but couldnt figure out a few things, heres what I did.
Removed steering wheel and lower console area for more room. Removed 3 long screws that appear to hold on the wiper/turn signal stalks. Removed one large allen bolt and 2 other screws that hold the lower steering column cover on, and removed cover. I removed the drivers seat too, so I could lay on my back and look up there.
I see the silly switch, I unhooked it, but cant tell how it comes out. It would help if I could get the turn signal/wiper stalk out of the way, but I cant figure out how it comes off, it seems to be hanging up on something. I disconnected all wiring from that area, but still cannot tell whats up.
Any help on this? It appeared to be a simple RR, but I put everything back together as I figured Id mess with it later.

I did this a while ago but if I remember right there should be a multi plug on the back of the switch and then a small phillips head screw on the switch housing then it should just come out. If you're talking about the key lock cylinder that's something else entirely.

How do I remove the wiper/turn signal stalks? Im looking at the bentley. For some reason, I couldnt find the page earlier. If I can get the stalks off, the steering lock housing should come right out, and then I can get to the ignition switch.
Any other help or BTDT?

I don't remember the stalks being difficult to remove, they might have some multi plugs attached and a phillips screw or 2 holding them in.
So it is the key cylinder that you're trying to RR correct?
Sorry I can't be more help, my memory isn't so good today.
