Hey all,

I could use some advice on how to proceed with removing my ignition key cylinder. I've been following the instructions posted here (https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-crx-ef-civic-1988-1991-3/ignition-cylinder-replacement-2557632/) but have been unsuccessful. This post (https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-civic-del-sol-1992-2000-1/replacing-ignition-key-cylinder-tumbler-need-help-2659747/) mentions a security screw, does this apply to the 99? And if so where is the thing?

In any case, any tips or tricks? Or am I stuck buying the entire (more expensive) ignition key assembly?

Thanks,
SK

 

try turning the key back and forth when your pushing on the pin.

if the pin pushes down all of a sudden then pull on the key and the lock tumbler will come out with it.
