Default Key broke into the lock cylinder

Lately if I didn't have bad luck, I wouldn't have any at all. My 99TA heater core started leaking on my way home from work Friday. So yesterday I took the `79 out and the key broke flush into the lock cylinder and I couldn't pull it out or turn it. I had it towed home and the wrecker driver had a hell of a time with it, seeing that the column was locked.

My question is - is this as simple as just changing the lock cyclinder? Or should I call a locksmith? Just curious about opinions.
