1985 300d ignition switch wont turn.

Help,
My 1985 300d ignition switch won't turn all the time. The key works fine in the door every time so I assume that's not the problem. It works in the ignition most of the time but sometimes it just won't turn at all. Any ideas on how to fix it? If the ignition switch need to be replaced, what would be the procedure? Is it a major job?
