That shouldn't come apart. It is a 2 part deal. Switch and the tumbler that fits in. Exception being the part that screws on and holds it in. Part of the switch when you buy it.

But the switch should not have come apart like that. Sounds like you need to buy a new one. I had 5 dashes and no keys. I destroyed a few trying to get them apart. So I am familiar with the parts you describe that shouldn't have come apart.

I ended up buying one. It was no harm no foul in my case I was getting a new bezel I just needed the metal backing plate. Turns out I had 67 switches in 2 of them and only one had the "Quote" correct 68 switch in it. They used up old stock I am sure before they switched over. I had fits trying to get that together till I figured out there were 2 different backing plates depending on which switch was used. And the screw on piece matches the switch, not necessarily The dash bezel piece. Oh I was having a blast doing that. But enough reminiscing I got it done.
