I don't have any of that information on my laptop, but I can look in my manuals at work. I have never done it, but I would imagine there are some security screws that you will have to drill out, etc.

BTW, I have gotten quite a few keys out of 911's and 930's using a very small angled pick and just working on it for awhile. If it is bent in there really bad though, this may not be an option. A locksmith may have something up their sleeves that they could get it out with as well.

You can try to remove it by loosing out the screws which put on it for its fixation in the cab.In case if this process doesn’t work for you then call up a mechanic to your house so that he can remove it from your cab. Don’t take this process lightly as it can take life at risk.
