Yesterday was on a 2 hour drive and when I stopped, got out and went to lock the door I realized my lock was gone!! I admit the tumbler had been a little wobbly for the past few weeks and would slide out a little when pulling my key out, but I didn't think it would fall out of the handle.

Is it an easy job to replace these??

Not too hard, you can pick up sets of new lock barrels off eBay pretty cheap.

Buster's guide for this is a good source of help: http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f41/door-lock-renewal-79426.html

Though that's assuming you haven't lost anything due to it falling out...

The barrel replacement kits don't come with the part that clips onto the back of the barrel
, if it's fallen out you'll need one of those as well.

The slide that holds the barrel in place will almost certainly be in the bottom of the door, thats why your barrel was loose in the first place.

If not, it may be caught up in the remote lock mechanism.

Alright, Sounds like I'll be buying some new tumblers/barrels and I'll have to check out buster guide.

Thanks very much
