Thanks but this doesn’t help my situation and I did read this thread earlier. Mine doesn’t seem to seat all the way and it won’t turn it all when it’s in the column

One of your pictures shows the key in the cylinder but in the "lock" position. The key/cylinder needs to be in the "ACC" position to install it.

Yeah well I tried that too, I know it’s just one of the single photos. I can’t turn the key at all and it doesnt feel like it’s seated all the way

but you can turn to key when when you hold the cylinder in your hand?

In this video, it seems pretty straightforward. However, it looks like what he pulls out is just the cylinder and in your pictures you have an adapter that connects the cylinder with the starter electrical switch on the other side. Maybe the problem is with getting that seated. In your picture you have the adapter attached to the barrel. Can you first install the adapter, make sure it is bottomed out, then try the cylinder?
