Just how do you remove the door locks on the sliding side door. Plastic handle has broken, but bought a new complete plastic moulding and handle. But I now have to remove the lock.
Any ideas ?

Try taking the trim off or cover from the inside first.
Yes sliding door squab is off, but how does the lock barrel come out of the plastic moulding ?
I'm just guessing never seen one - OK!
The barrel is usually held in with a clip which should either slide (flat metal type)
Looking at the side view of the flat clip should be an L shape which you should be able to place a screwdriver and work off by sliding.
There is a plastic grommet in the edge of the door oval shape and the flat clip is extracted through there.
