You'll need some torx bits to get the cowling off. Then once thats off, you will see the loads of wires and stuff, you'll need to cut them all with some wire cutters - every wire you see. It's ok, that will get fixed later. Then once you have cut all the wires and made it all safe, you'll need a hammer and chisel. This is where you need to be careful, but basically put the chisel around the barral and smash the fuck out of it. Might need a screwdriver in the barrel too, give it a jerking up and down motion and just smash the fuck out of the barrel and everything around it. Once its lose, it should come out quite easily. Then chuck it in the bin and scrap the car because its now all fucked. Simple. For a serious explanation, read here: http://www.fiestaguides.co.uk/content/m ... _pats.html |

Because if the barrel is smooth an old smooth key would work better than a new one. Just force it

Remove cowling, insert key, turn to 1st click (possibly 2nd) then use a small screwdriver to pop the barrel out, there's a small circle hole on the side that you have to press in an the barrel will then pop straight out !! 2 minute job mate!! |

put the key in turn it to the first click i think and then what you do you press the pin down ontop of the barrel you willsee it mate and then it should come free i think you turn the key to first or click or second try it fella if the pin does not go down on first click it will be the second click |
