I had to remove my ignition switch today as it packed up last night. It took me nearly four hours on and off to eventually turn the key. I followed the procedure in the maintenance guide section. However, what the guide does not show is the difficulty in locating something to depress the retaining clip to release the barrell. My steering wheel, even when turned, still did not give any direct access. I did manage to locate a 2.5mm allen key into the hole and carefully using a screwdriver for leverage manage to depress the clip and remove the mechanism. Please see pic. Thought i would post this in case any other members have to remove their switch in the future.
