Model A steering wheel lock

Haven't done one but that's screaming out to be impressioned tbh bitbuster, it's only 4-pin and you've got the blanks, You'll have a key in an hour or so without the pita disassembly and leaving everything intact.

Yes, I know it can be impressioned but I want to go a different route. Thought someone may have removed plug and generated a key that way.

Not found in old Reed General Code Book, I agree with Huw that it should be fairly easy to impression.

Here are the depths and spaces, pre-cut a blank to all #0 depths on your code machine to aid in seeing the impression marks:
Depths: 0=.173, 1=.286, 3=.261, 4=.248, 5=.236, 6=.223, 7=.221, 8=.198, 9=.186
Spaces: 1=.216, 2=.372, 3=.528, 4=.684
HPC Card: X45
DSD#: 334

If you don't have to disassemble the lock, it saves the risk of what you might find out once it is in bits.
If it is working and easily impressions, that is both the easiest and best way.
if you can't do that yourself and refuse to pay someone else, then you will have to do it a riskier way.

It could be four pins but sometime there a five pins to hold the plug inside the lock. Also as looking the picture the hole for the pins only if you can turn the lock until you see the pins inside the lock and the pin may come out. Like the American Padlock cylinder. Note keep this in mind that the bottom pins may pop up in the plug. Not sure but there may be screw or pin on the side to hold the cylinder. If can turn cylinder both way to find it. Per picture...

The one picture you said black dot for set screw that goes into the cylinder. Have you try to take that set screw out. That could be what holding the cylinder in. If the screw does come out went it unlock to pull he cylinder out be careful that it may have spring load inside pop out.....Timothy.....
