How difficult is it to replace door locks?

I just got my sub/box and the amp and head unit are being shipped.. sooo time for new locks sense i have no keys...

Take the glove box door to the locksmith. He can dismantle the cylinder without hurting it, and determine the key code, which chould match the door cylinders.

Otherwise. remove the door panel and slide the U clip off the cyilnder and the lock will fall out of the door.

When reassembling, make sure the door lock rod goes into the loop on the lock.

How difficult would it be to get the hatch lock out?...would that be easier?..

I have taken the hatch cylinder out and switched out the tumblers it's actually pretty easy. There are i think about 8 tumblers and 8 little springs, and a little piece of spring steel that keep them inplace, all you have to do is pry off the top retainer piece, then take a small pick or a paper clip and pull out all of the springs, and the push out the tumblers using the paper clip, then simply insert them into the new lock cylinder in the same order. A guy at the Saginaw chevy dealer showed me how to do this in 5 minutes, gave me a lock cylinder all new springs and a new lock cylinder cover kit, for the price of the cylinder. Works great. Well good luck and if you have any questions let me know.

I was just wondering if its easy to take the hatch lock out and take to like a lock smith to have a set of keys made for it.
