Default Flip Kwikset left-hand lock knob to right-hand keyhole reversal

I don't like to use that A-1 tool either it does damage the lock and clips
at times.. always the lock. IMHO
But I have used it in an emergency and no not on a titan! :-)

You can't pop the cylinder out with a screw driver. Takes
a
special tool.


This is total BS again showing how little you know about
the trades you hack
at. It can be popped with a screwdriver (or two) of the
right dimensions or
a sharp pick or anything that will physically fit for that
matter.



actually it can be popped out from the rear with a blunt
ended punch :-)

I've found when you knock it out it's the same as pulling it from the
front.
Usually distorts the clips a little which granted is a small thing and
easily fixed, but it bugs me to even slightly damage something I'm being
paid to work on, if I don't absolutely have to. Then again some people
complain I'm a damn perfectionist and it drives them nuts....
