Hey fella's. Someone broke into my 91 Integra LS last night, couldn't find a spare key, and tried to use a screw driver to start my car. They were unsuccessful, and only made off with $30 of misc items, but I am unable to start my car.

I need a new ignition cylinder. I'm in Fullerton, CA in the OC. The local Ecology Auto Parts (Sante Fe Springs) has a 94 Integra, but I'm not sure that ignition would work with my 91. PartsAmerica.com has the part for $240 but it doesn't even SHIP for a week. I commute to work every day.

Any help/ideas are welcome. I'm going to be hitting the phones and wrecking yards today.

Thanks in advance.

Unscrew the ignition switch from the back of the tumbler and manually turn it. Then shop for a replacement at your leisure (not $240!!).

The ignition was locked even though the steering wheel wasn't locked. The inside of the ignition seems fine, once I got it to turn it works - phew. A little rough but it works.

I would go buy a clucth/brake lock from a local pep boys, autozone or any local parts store. besides an alarm its the best investment i've made.

The 94 ignition will work to get the car fired up, but you won't be able to install it like it belongs there. You may want to check the pick a part there in Stanton and Anaheim. One is on Katella and the other on Beach.
