Hopefully you're going to fix it before you somehow get stranded... I'd try a pen magnet...

You think a pen manget would be strong enough? Id assume that hed have to take the ignition apart and push it out from the back.

Definetly worth a shot... Pulling the ignition cylinder SUCKS (I've replaced them on friend's cars before)... Mainly because the airbag is a PITA to not mess up.

If a small magnet doesn't work rig up a piece of 3M doublesided tape (or something sticky) onto the very end of your broken half (that came out), stick it in ther and hope it grabs the other half so you can pull it out...
