To remove vauxhall steering lock key barrels you need the key to turn.
You turn the key- push out a pin and it pulls out.
If you have to drill it out I think you need to change the steering lock as well which is apain.
My advice- which is prob crap-
Get a scaff bar through the steering wheel and bounce on it till the steering lock breaks-Wont take too much (I've seen it on Police camera action)
Job done.. stays off all the time.
