Model: Piaggio Ciao
Part: Door lock

Using a flat screwdriver, remove the small cover of the steering lock, prying it off from underneath as shown in the video. Tap the lock of the same steering lock with a screwdriver or a similar tool and a hammer. Using a drill and a 2.5 mm bit, start drilling, cooling the bit occasionally by stopping and applying some spray. After a while, increase the bit size (for example, to 3.5 mm) and continue drilling, gradually working up to a 6 mm bit. When the inner part starts to rotate, you can extract the lock cylinder. Install the new lock cylinder as shown in the video.
