Thank you, but all the credit should really go to Baer383 and daisuke149 for coming up with the fuse-pulling solution - all I did was write down the steps.

have to remember that i created the DIY thread for the steering lock long before fritz found the brown wire cut technique, and baer and daisuke finding the fuse pull. i already spent $500 on the spare lock, im going to use it.
