Im looking at trading my half doors for full doors with another forum member. What is the best way to change the lock cylinders in the doors? Thanks in advance!

it's kind of easy for the half doors.

Google K6860781
and you'll get directions for assembling the half doors.

Full doors should be pretty similar but you may have to deal with the window mechanism.

The lock cylinders can be re-keyed by any locksmith. I just had mine re-keyed for my half doors that I had on my '08 to match the key of my '12. Cost $50 for the pair.
