How to disassemble the lock cylinder in the Toyota Corolla?

Model: Toyota Corolla MK 2 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Door lock

In this tutorial we can see how to disassemble the lock cylinder in the Toyota Corolla, an extremely simple and quick operation. First of all, we open the door in which we will work, then we locate the small rubber plug placed on the inner edge, at the same height as the handle, and remove it. We then loosen the bolt accessible from the hole using a Torx T30 key, grasp the lock cylinder and remove it from the door. At this point, all that remains is to insert the replacement, and reassemble everything following the reverse procedure.
