Door lock removal
 
I looked through the FSM and was unsuccessful at finding out how to remove my door lock cylinder. The little metal door on the cylinder broke off and fell into the tumblers... Anyone have any advice on how to get it out? I had the door panel off and failed to see how the door handle is attached...

There are two nuts holding the doorhandle on, one is removeable with the window up, the other with the window down.
Once the nuts are removed the actuating arms can be disconnected.
The lock assembly is held into the handle casting with a metal (wire) clip.

Awesome. Thanks clokker. I couldn't see the second nut, and was confused because the window has a bit of extra glass that covers the door handle quite a bit. So I was wondering how I was supposed to over come that... 'preciate it.
