Re: [DML] Early door lock removal




Phil,

The metal portion of the lock is pressed into the
black plastic.  The black plastic retaining ring has
three little 'feet' inside the door that are pushed
aside when the metal portion of the lock is pushed
into place.  When the lock is fully seated, the little
plastic feet snap into the back portion of the lock,
holding it firmly in place.

To remove without damage, you will need two or three
right angle picks.  After removing the door cover, you
can see the inside of the lock.  Work the picks under
each foot and pry each up.  Once you have them up, use
a screwdriver to push against the metal portion from
the inside and it will come out.  Be very careful
while doing all this, since every little edge of the
SS will cut like the dickens and you will have to have
both hands inside the door at the same time.

If this is not clear, contact me at (662) 349-4434 and
I will try to explain better.  If you are close to
Memphis, I can take them out for you---no charge.
