Did spray wd40 and jiggle it with vise grip, just comes out halfway.

Do you guys think by disassembling the cylinder key would get the key out?

try to put super glue on the key stub and reatach it to the old piece. now carefully try to pull it out with the button pushed. it may release it enough to get it out or at least to try to get it with pliers

im not sure on this one but if you can get the ignition cylinder out i think you might be able to push it out through the other end with a paper clip. if not take the cylinder to a lock smith to fish it out
