[urq] Ignition switch?

I had to drill a hole in the housing on my 200s, the red factory book 
shows the same procedure.

The photo in the manual shows the housing looking down from the top at 
the V between the column and the key cylinder housing.  The photo shows 
a rib along the length of the cylinder body above the part number, in 
this case "171905851".

The description says to use a 3mm bit to drill 12mm from the opening end 
  of the housing and 10mm above the ridge.


Hope that does it, you'll be needing a steering column tomorrow...
