I'm hoping you can help point me in the correct direction with this....
I'm in the process of swapping the components out of an ET4 from a rotten frame... to a solid one that I've repaired and painted....

....a problem that I've come across...I'm struggling to remove the ignition barrel from the barrel tube....I'm sure that there's a clip that holds it in but I can't budge it so I'm assuming that I'm doing it wrong....

It's been a long time since I did this. But if I recall, I had to drop the steering column for the lock barrel to come completely out of the tube. I don't believe the locking mechanism will slide past the steering column with it in place.

I put blue painters tape on the steering column of my wife's ET4 when I disassembled it for paint so I wouldn't forget to put the lock barrel back in place before reassembling it. Sure wouldn't want to get most of the way together and realize I had forgot that little detail.
