    Attempted Theft -> Steering Lock and Ignition Key Barrel Smashed

    Allright, I managed to unscrew the ignition switch so I can start and drive the car now. No cutting was required, just some rather undignified amateur gymnastics in the drivers footwell. Should be ok from here as I can get it home to my workshop and order and install the replacement parts I need.

    Attempted Theft -> Steering Lock and Ignition Key Barrel Smashed

    I'm guessing the best way to approach it is to take out the entire steering column first.

    How did you go with this? I have a similar problem that I'm trying to gather information on. Did you need to take out the entire steering column to replace the steering lock?

    Attempted Theft -> Steering Lock and Ignition Key Barrel Smashed

    So some creep attempted to steal my cruiser and the steering lock and ignition barrel are broken. The car is immobilised. :mad: 1. First thing is to get the car running. I don't seem to be able to turn the key to ACC to remove the barrel so I'm considering hacksawing through the steering lock...
