Part: Door lock

With a flat screwdriver or a small plastic lever, detach the small plastic around the lock buttons. Unscrew the now uncovered screw with a t20 torx wrench. Then unscrew the screw under the handle again with torx t20. Now, again with a slotted tool (flat screwdriver, lever and whatever you prefer) remove the door panel. Disconnect the connector. Now unscrew the screws on the door that secure the lock, as shown in the video. Also unplug the cable connected to it and it will come out. Mount the new lock obviously proceeding backwards and making sure it is positioned like the original.
