Ignition Cylinder 01 Camry Sign In

How do I replace my ignition cylinder in my 2001 toyota camry.
I've gotten all the trim off, and inserted my key and turned it to the acc setting.
I then inserted something to push the button underneath. But when i try to pull the cylinder out, nothing budges. Am I missing something?

No, that's pretty much it.

There is a plastic ring that sits on the edge of the cylinder. Its only function is to light up when the door is opened to show you where the ignition is in the dark.
Once I removed the one screw holding that in, the cylinder came out with no problems.

The whole housing came away from the dash then. You still have to remove the cylinder after that.
You never said you couldn't get the housing away from the dash.
