Here's something I haven't had the pleasure to deal with, until now. Tried looking online for instructions but could only find older models. Need to pop the barrel out to clean/grease. |

Not an easy job. It's not like a Ford where you push the pin, turn the key and piull the whole lock out.... Try dry lock graphite. |

Where is the pin location? I tried a pic in the 2 spots nearest the face of the lock. One directly under the lock at 6:00 and another one off to the side, closer to the steering wheel, like a tube sorta. |

Thanks. Got it. Pulled the airbag, wheel and column switch, was able to drill out the 2 roll pins from there. There wasn't any snap ring on mine. |
