After being without my car for over a month and a half while it was having work done to it, I finally got it back at the weekend. However, I went out for a blast last night and when I got home, I turned the car off but couldn't get they key out. The ignition switch is clearly knackered and I found the guide on here how to replace it and I ordered a new one.
Luckily I managed to get the car back in the garage and hook it up to the charger so it doesn't drain the battery. No matter how much I try I just can't get the key out. So, does anyone know if it's possible to replace the switch with the key still in the ignition? All the guides have the key already removed. Or is there a special way to get the key out, wiggling the key and lots of swearing doesn't seem to be working.
