Title: change drivers lock barrel 2003 cdx
Post by: adi on 04 July 2013, 20:35:49

Hi

has anyone swapped a drivers door lock barrel on a facelift... If I replace the drivers door and want to transfer my original barrel to the replacement door so my original key opens the door...

Just wondering how long it should take...

Also wondering if the drivers door will fit behind the front seats to take it home ...


Thanks


Adi...

Remove the outer door handle & IIRC the barrel stays with it. It's obvious when you have the door in bits, I swapped A N Other handle when mine broke and it was all quite straight forward.

No idea about whether the door fits in the back  ::) :y
