Default Need Help!!! Key wont turn

Yes i have read the articles on how to fix the sticky key. Wish those pictures were still available.....lol.

The key wont turn to remove the tumbler from the housing. tried over a thousand times. The steering Wheel is locked. I've tried to push in the pin, or at least what i think is the pin, to turn and remove housing. Won't budge. From what I've read. I'm screwed. I now need to drill out the pin, Yes?

The pin i am talking about, is the pin, just to the left of the collar that holds the housing in? Yes?

This silver pin. That i am assuming needs to be drilled out in order to completely remove the housing. Yes? And then i can replace the tumbler?

Does that pin need to go back in? or is the collart what holds it in place?

Just not sure if the pin i am describing is the rite pin. And does it need to go back in. Or is it garbage?

Pizza Guy. Cant thank you enough for those.

One more question......That pin that needs to be drilled out. Does it need to be replaced. Or is that the pin that is the issue, that some have removed completely.
