There are pins above and below the lock cylinder in the body of the unit
on the barrel of the lock mount.. you need to carefully drill a hole
alongside each of the pins and then pry the pins out far enough to
release the lock, which is then just pulled out.
My copy of "Keying & Servicing Foreign Car Locks" says that it's not
recommended because you need to remove the steering column. Could be
true, I've got the assembly on my desk here, but I did take out the
steering column. Don't think I had to though.
