I'm trying to install a new trunk lock in my 57. I can't seem to get the lock cylinder in far enough to engage. I've depressed the pin to get the cylinder in, but it won't go in far enough to engage the slot in the back of the sleeve. It feels like the slotted part in back of the sleeve and the tab on the back of the cylinder are not even touching. Is there some kind of a trick to this?
