Key doesnt fit but the car will start with it half way in or with a screw driver
 

My key doesn't fit in all the way so it's suck in the 1 position, i can turn it with the key but not in all the way and start it just fine. i can take my key out while the car is running and it stays on. do i need everything on this page or just a piece?

You can buy an aftermarket drop in cylinder kit.

You are going to need the entire lock cylinder. I had this same problem after some douche bags tried to steal my hatch while i was visiting family in Arizona. I tried buying a new lock cylinder and it wouldnt fit. Aparrently the previous owner replaced my entire housing with one from another model civic. I had to get a whole nother assembly from pick n pull but didnt get to install it before my hatch was totaled, but surprisingly enough after the car was totaled the lock cylinder started working normally again. I guess it just needed an impact to get the tumblers reset inside the cylinder. lol
