a magnet prolly wouldnt do jack...I dont think brass is magnetic for one thing and then there is the fact that it might be a push in and turn back ignition which means the magnet wouldnt be able to suck it out cuz its still "locked" in the ignition...if it was me and there was nothing to grab onto with pliers I'd just take the whole assembly out, take it apart and get the key out...then put it back toghether and reinstall
