Key cylinder removal - ignition 120-130

Ok, I've been trying to remove the key cylinder for the igntion and I can't get it out. I see a botton(?) on the side, but it doesn't push in or do anything. Is there a trick that I'm missing?

Thanks-

Is the ignition in the "on" position? If not, you will not be able to push the button.

Like George said: You need to have key inserted, turned to "ON" and then depress the small button.

Is there a way to remove it without key?

Yes, if you can pick the lock.

Key cylinder removal - Plan B 120-130

Or you can drill out the pins and replace the cylinder. You still have to get the cylinder to the "on" position to remove it. Messy but an option.
