Hi all, I got hold of another ignition barrel for my B coupe as the key was knackered and once you took the key out it took ages to jiggle it back in.
I just wanted some advice on how to replace as I have a habit of breaking things Posted Image
I have removed the plastic cowling and there is a metal strap holding it to the steering column how does one remove this?
any help would be greatly received  Posted Image  cheers Adie
