do they flicker when u first start the car up , like flicker in and out a couple of times and then it goes to normal , if so thats a new feature that they put in contours and svts , what its does is it surges the power in and out a couple of times , so it prevents the wiring from being fried

That is the BIGGEST LOAD I've ever seen posted on these boards. Where did you get THAT information??? (I'm guessing a used car salesman or a "friend".
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Actually it does do that. Also took a closer look and found out that a couple of tabs were broken so causing it do more than just flicker.
Any one have a problem with the key tumbler, as if it is hard to get the key into?

As for the key tumbler, try turning the steering wheel a little bit in either direction. Happens to me ocassionally.
