the bezel nut does hold the switch housing and the housing holds the key cylinder in it, also don't forget about removing the battery cable and the electric socket off the back of the housing. You can re-key it yourself like Jim said, it's not that hard or you can take it to a lock smith to have it done, or just pick another cylinder and keys up at your local auto parts store, you can also pick up the switch housing there to, but remember the ignition key is supposed to be the same key used for the door locks.A13Dart said:Thanks Jim. Do you know if the bezel nut holds the ignition cylinder in place or is there more to it?
