I have an '88 760. Cannot turn key in ignition lock. Steering wheel is locked, shift lever is free to move. I have read FAQ information on this, and my equipment does not match any of the explanations. Lock cylinder is in the column, I have removed both switch wands and the steering wheel. I cannot find the two bolts with shear heads that are to be drilled and removed with EZ-out. All I see are two very small roll pins in the front of the cylinder area. I cannot figure out where/how to unlock the wheel either. The car is in the parking lot where my son works, and it will be over $100 to get it towed home. I have the switch free, but I can't drive the car with the steering locked. Any help or answers would be greatly appreciated.
