How to Replace Ignition Lock Cylinder on 91 RS

I need to replace my Ignition Lock Cylinder, the car is 1991 CAMARO RS 305 TBI 700R4 and I see there are different Ignition Lock Cylinder's and also my key has this little chip in it. Will this make a difference when I get the new ignition lock cylinder? or would I have to get one with the vehicle anti-theft system?

Also how exactly do you go about removing the Ignition Lock Cylinder and installing the new one without damaging anything? ( I did a search but on the topic they were discussing concerned something else and was not in detail) any help pleeaase?..and would be greatly appreciated thanks!

I'm not recommending this but...

I just took the wheel off and started systematically taking the parts out until I got down to the cylinder. The cylinder itself is held in with one screw, not too deep, just be sure to keep things in order.
