Is there any easy way to remove the ignition switch lock cylinder without having to take the whole column apart (lock plate, bearing)

I can't remember right now, but I think it can be replaced without taking the whole thing apart...the lock cylinder.

That photo is actually Gary's (Challenger1) & he's commented about it before, the plate just happened to fit....

It's a broken Mark Williams floater housing mount that I used, anything would work with 2 holes in it to mount the coluum to.

Glad to hear you got yours replaced 1932 Chryler.
