Default Ignition Switch Install, not happening

Recently my ignition switch went out. I replaced it but I have no idea how it installs. It's not the key thing its the one that the bright light switch bolts to. Can't remember how it came off. Does anyone have actual pics? It is a 1994 Cherokee. Any help would be muchhh appreciate. Thanks guys

I am 300 miles from town in the middle of canada visiting family. I didn't think I would need to bring an entire toolbox and manuals with me for a simple little trip. I go back to the US to be deployed for 6 months. I thought this was a forum for helping people, not stating the obvious. I'll be sure to return the favor when you need help. Not. I'm done with this place.

A bit touchy are we? I hate to say it but with your attitude, I don't think you will be missed. Even if it was only your first post.

Uh, you wouldn't be touchy in this situation?

People get on here and ask what side they should part their hair on if they use a Fram filter and get answers out the kazoo etc. etc. etc. with posters falling all over themselves to "help". This guy asks what I assume is a legitimate question and gets nothing. (I know, I know he may be a troll!)

The OP made a polite post including his model year. I don't know the answer but I'm sure someone does. Not to worry, I assume he will get an answer somewhere.

With a post like that I'm not sure what you would expect. I thought they were sort of nice actually.

Anyway it happens I was just reading this, maybe it will help>
