Roll up the window,remove the window guide closests to the latch.You will have to use a phillips screwdriver for only one screw located at the bottom of the door. Pop the rubber slide out of the metal holder and remove the metal holder. Now you will be able to see a metal pin toward the key lock. Take a screwdriver and push up on this and your door should open.Once open, disassemble the entire mechanism (4 phillips screws on the outside of the door) 4clips that hold the handle and lock rods in place, and remove the entire mechanism. Use penetrating oil to loosen all parts and replace.
