Default !HELP!- Attempted car theft, ignition jacked - need help/info on ignition cylinder

Hey fella's. Someone broke into my 91 Integra LS last night, couldn't find a spare key, and tried to use a screw driver to start my car. They were unsuccessful, and only made off with $30 of misc items, but I am unable to start my car.

I need a new ignition cylinder. I'm in Fullerton, CA in the OC. The local Ecology Auto Parts (Sante Fe Springs) has a 94 Integra, but I'm not sure that ignition would work with my 91. PartsAmerica.com has the part for $240 but it doesn't even SHIP for a week. I commute to work every day.

Any help/ideas are welcome. I'm going to be hitting the phones and wrecking yards today.

Thanks in advance.

THANKS!

I'm wondering. My manual says to put the key in the #1 position, take out this little screw, and push on a pin and the ignition comes out. What if your key won't turn? Will the ignition still come out?

it was stuck in the lock position even though the steering wheel wasn't locked, just jacked up from the screwdriver, once I got it loose it worked. The inside of the ignition seems fine - phew.
