Okay that title was for attention really, I bought my red 98 xj back in October. Anyways I bought it with some body damage, and one panel being the passenger front door. I purchased one off craigslist last night. Same color, options(power windows,locks, mirrors.) anyways my only problem is how do I swap out the door lock components so I can use my keys on the new door? Is there a write up for this? Thanks

 

 

Take off both door panels and change your original lock cylinder over to the new door.

 

Literally just need a write up on how to get the door cylinder out

 

1. Pull the door panel.

2. Shine a light up onto the inner part of the cylinder.

3. Take a screwdriver and pop off the retainer on the lock rod(s).

4. Pull the cylinder retaining clip with a pair of pliers. Cylinder will come off the door on the outside.

5. Installation is the reverse of removal.
