Thanks for all the help, but I'm stll having trouble. I took out the seat, located the metal plug and drilled it out. Then I stuck my punch in there, voila, it came out. I cleaned all the gunk out of the hole where the tumbler had been with WD40, popped in the new one and heard the pin snap in place. When I tried to turn the new key, it did the same thing as the one before and didn't move. So I popped the new one out again and now the pin is stuck and the key won't move with the tumbler out of there... Once I cleaned out the old one with WD40 and had it out of there, it is now moving. Of course it's all boogered up since I was prying on it with vice grips...
So I must have something else going on. I can feel a little something underneath the tumbler hole, like a rocker switch or something like that. Should I do something with it when I put in the new tumbler?
Sorry to be so clueless. You guys are great!
JM
