Door locks are already in and working.  I'm not sure how to go about removing the old cylinder so I can add the new one. It's a '67 Chevy PU. What do I need to do? Thanks!

Turn the switch to the acessory position. Insert a paper clip or old choke cable in the hole. Turn it a little bit more ccw. It "should" come out now. Put the new one back in starting at the same position.

At this point in time, I just don't wanna mess anything up. Thought I'd ask for advice.
I'll go try that while I'm waiting on my pizza.

It worked just like you said. I had to turn it a bit CCW to get it to release. The new one popped right in, and the truck cranked up without a hitch. Now I have "one" key that will crank the truck and lock the doors. I couldn't even lock the doors before. Finally, something that works!!!!!! You guys don't know how much I appreciate your help!  Thanks a half-ton!
