Ignition barrel question

[huester]

Hi, the ignition barrel went on the VR and we've been using the screwdriver method to start it. Stuffed up with the ignition part the screwdriver goes in and this needs replacing.

As per the attched picture, can someone tell me what the name of this part is, is it easy to remove, where can I get a replacement and what price ( ballpark ) am I looking at. Also, is this part standard with a barrel replacement.

I get lost around cars so these are potentially 'dumb' questions. Be kind.

thanks

Its the ignition switch, easy to remove two clips on the back of it and pull it off the wire connector ( you replace the hole black bit), can still get from Holden for around $20, when we fit a new key barrel at work we all ways fit a new one of them
