You got the majority done !

You need to remove the screw that holds the turn signal arm to the switch, then the 3 screws that hold the turn signal switch to the housing.

You may have to unplug the switch electrical connector to gain enough room, and then pull the switch up and out of the way of the housing.

There may be a key buzzer switch - you can pull it out w/ needle nose pliers, but be careful that the spring does not fall into the column !

You will now either see a screw, or perhaps nothing - in which case there is a casting flash in the housing that can be punched thru w/ a screwdriver allowing you to see a rectangular "pin".

Push that in, and out comes the lock cylinder !
