Hi!
Unfortunately, my Pampersbomber needs a new door.
I also got that door from the recycling center.
The problem now is that the lock cylinder is still in the door, and (obviously)...
no key exists anymore icon_confused.gif
Whether the handle or the locking cylinder are damaged during removal is irrelevant.
(as long as the door itself isn't damaged), because the parts of the old door are still there.
Okay.
Has anyone ever installed something like this before?
Large, forged screwdriver and brute force?

Best regards,
Rudi

As far as I remember, it wasn't a problem with the G3. Just remove the Torx screw inside, push the handle forward, and swing it out.
Man muss es nicht brauchen, aber man muss es haben!

'Actually,' you need to turn the key 90 degrees for the locking mechanism to disengage.
Since one half of the locking mechanism is made of plastic, a firm pull icon_wink.gif will also work.

Best regards,
Rudi
