Replacement of the lock cylinder of the BMW 3 Series

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Door lock

Today's instructions will show us the process of disassembling and replacing the door lock cylinder of the BMW 3 Series. First, we open the front door and begin by removing the side plastic cap, then unscrewing the lock cylinder screw to remove it from the outside (using a screwdriver to push it out), as shown in the video. At this point, we repair or replace the lock cylinder, securely fastening it with the original screw, following the video tutorial until the end!
