Ask the Nissan dealer for a print out of the part diagram, they should know.

That ish has tearaway bolts. Not an easy/normal thing to do sir. I really don't know what to recommend. I actually do have a spare ignition cylinder with a key, but as I said the connecting bolts shear away and these were hacked off. No easy chance of install as far as I know. If you really need/want you can hit me up for the cylinder, but either way talk to a mechanic preferably someone into nissans to determine the amount of work required, or if it's even easily possible.
