Default 85 XJ6 Ignition switch replacement

Hello
My key in the ignition switch turns all the way around and will not start, if I push the electrical part of the switch the car starts. Obvoiusly its the switch, can the electrical portion be purchased seperately or do I have to buy the key cylinder and switch assembly.

Default Jaguar ignition switch

Do I need any special tools to replace ignition switch electrical part, and do I need to remove the ignition cylinder, thanks.

The only remotely special tool would be a tiny phillips screwdrver for the little screw that holds the electrical part of the switch into the the key part.

It's an easy job.

Cheers
