STEP 4

First task is to detach the front door trim, which involves removing a number of items. Start this process by undoing the screws which hold on the door pocket (if present).
  


 

Then undo the screws holding the door-pull assembly

 

Then undo the two screws which secure the door trim as shown on the left.
 

 

   
Now remove the small screw which sits in the recess on the top of the door trim.
   
Pull the window-winder handle off as shown in the photograph.
   
 

 

And finally, remove the door trim from the door.

 

STEP 5

With the trim removed, the next step is to detach the window-guide and lock-barrel. This is achieved by undoing 2 small bolts as shown in the photo on the right. Once detached, just move it to the left, out of your way. 

   
 

Turn the lock-barrel retaining ring anticlockwise and remove. You will not be refitting this!

Withdraw the lock-barrel.

     

STEP 6

Using the gasket as a template, mark the drill-holes as shown in the photograph.

Since this area of the door is double-skinned, you will need to drill a pilot-hole before using your large drill bit.

With the holes drilled and the painted with touch-up paint, you can now fit the zinc-coated backing plate and reinsert the lock barrel.

STEP 7

Now you are ready to fit the stainless-steel frontplate. Fit the two gaskets to the back of the plate and apply a small amount of silicone around the threaded stud areas. Then fit the plate to the door as indicated in the picture above and after fitting the small spacer strip show below, attach the Nyloc Lock Nuts and tighten.

DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN THE NUTS!

 

STEP 8

Now check the alignment of the plate in relation to the keyhole and use a soft-faced mallet to gently tap the edge of the plate if required. Since you did not overtighten the locknuts, there will be a small amount of movement available.

Congratulations! You have just fitted the best lock protection system on the market.
