unfortunately on this system you need to disassemble steering column. first you press off the steering wheel then you use a lock plate depressor to remove the lock plate(special tool you may be able to borrow from the parts store) then remove 4 bolts holing in turn signal switch then remove key chime insert then there is a torx 20 screw that you remove then the ignition comes out. hope this helps
