The other day, I was gifted a 78 Firebird, but the key was lost after sitting for so long.

I've gotten a new lock cylinder and pulled the column apart, but the cylinder will not let free even after pressing the release button.

Does the key have to be present to remove it?

I've heard Pontiac switched parts halfway through 78.

Thanks
