The outer have of the cylinder came out if I stick that half back in and use the key it still works but it won't stay in what attaches this and how do I fix it I really don't wanna put a used cylinder in and have 2 separate keys

I have the opposite problem. I have a junk yard door and can't get my old cylinder out.

There's some sort of clip-style cover on the back, but I can't figure out how to get the damn thing off.

Sorry I can't help, but I figured I'd bump your thread for you and hopefully we'll both get our answers.

Right cause I have a spare door in the same color but obviously a different key that I don't have and I don't want 2 separate keys that's just a pain

What year is it? Had that happen on my 96. Since my remote fob worked, I just blued the lock back in place and relied on the passenger side lock as my backup. At 99.5 they did away with the pass side lock though.

Pretty sure I just used an epoxy...I usually have JB Weld around. Keep the disk brake cleaner handy in case you get some smeared around. That stuff eats epoxy pretty good.
