74 MK III Midget.
Key broke off in the ignition switch, so it seems I've gotta take the switch out in order to extract the key.
I tried to extract the key for almost 3 hours yesterday, no joy. Took the car to two locksmiths today, one tried and couldn't get it, the other said he'd have to take the switch out to extract the key.
Holy moly, never know how much trouble a little key could stir up!
I've been told that the whole steering column must come out in order to remove the escutcheon and ignition swich. Is this correct? Does anyone have experience with it? Any suggestions or input on how to tackle the job?
Many thanks for the help, folks.
