I don't know what to say... I can't even find that listing on another website and Autozone comes up with a Ford one when I put in 1991 Beretta and it doesn't look like that.

Before I searched for Ignition Actuator switch and thats the image I got I assumed it would work since it was GM..

This is also the image Rock Auto has for 90 and 91 Beretta

and you can still start the car, just turn the key on and press the ignition switch manually from below while the clutch is pressed. just follow the rod that goes down the right side of the column.

Your actuator from the Beretta with a manual transmission? How much will he?

It has to be for manual ? one from a 94 i assume wont work ? thats the only manual i know of at the wreckers i go to, but there is lot of automatic older cavilers and maybe a corssica.

OK! But my actuator has oblique teeth. And your actuator has seemingly straight teeth?
I think they look the same.. can someone else confirm if they are different between manual and auto. i know the manual has a button to push to turn the key back but does that effect the shape of the actuator.

this seems complicated lol. all i can get is from an automatic. same as the one i pictured that was removed from a corsica.
I have a 94 sitting in my driveway on the float just buy the whole column and put that in lol, shipping that overseas would be alot though

There is 1 5 speed car there and its a 94 quad and the newer style actuator is way different by the looks of it.

Your better off probably at this point to PM the other person who said they have one for $17 bucks or whatever it was, seems to be the correct part. if you think one from an automatic is the same then i can get that part but not from a 5 speed

Hate to bring up an old post for my first...
Im in the same boat, broke down and finally got around to changing my key lock in the 90 GTZ. When the first destruction is to remove the steering columm thats kind of a put off. I have only ever had one key and its pretty much uncopyable. Good thing I did the actuator was in bad shape and broke when I looked at it wrong. Would be a pretty rude problem if I couldnt shut off the car.
I think at this point GM came has the happy medium. The notch in the manual trans version seems to be for the key release lever if you install the current version it disables the key release lever (which I always found annoying). It also appeas that Banzi's columm has a release button on the key lock and not a lever so is a non problem.
