My car ('93 Subaru Impreza L) got stolen and the thieves busted out my ignition cylinder. Im having a very difficult time getting a repair shop to sell me an automatic ignition cylinder. They all require me to show up and pay a Service Tech to take a look at it first. Part shops can get me a manual ignition cylinder (which is ok since its now a manual transmission) but not an automatic cylinder. Im curious how difficult/whats the difference in the installation of the two ignition cylinders. If I were able to get an automatic ignition cylinder, I'm sure I'm crafty enough to figure out an identical swap, but I've never messed around a steering column before. Any help would be amazing since this could save me quite a bit of money.
