So I work at a lumberyard and the key fell off and it痴 long gone I got it towed home and I have a new lock cylinder assembly I even have a new switch and I know I could plug the new switch in and get it started but the steering will still be locked? How do I unlock the steering it痴 a four-cylinder 2009 Sonata gls.. Should I drill it or take a big flat head screwdriver I know to only go in an inch but please help me!!

Because you can't turn the lock to the ACC position, you can't remove it the easy way. You may be able to use the slide hammer way to remove the lock, or call a locksmith it may be the best way considering the housing could be damaged pulling the lock. some have recommended drilling the lock, I'm not sure if that is easier.
