I have a 93 Chevy and it doesn't have power locks its all manual but how do you change out the locks I bought the cylinders and keys for both doors at autozone I just don't know how to put them in.
How do you replace the door locks on an old chevy?
First...what kind of 93 Chevy? Is it the one with the lock cylinders in the door handle assembly or the one with the lock cylinder below the door handle? The door panel removal and removal of the lock rod is required for either. The separate cylinder has a U clip holding it in. Remove it and the lock removes to the exterior of the vehicle. The one with the cylinder in the handle assembly has a spring retainer at the 6:00 position. Push in and remove to the interior of the vehicle.

take off the interior door skin and roll the window all the way up to get access to the door locks. you may have to remove the window if it blocks access to the door locks.
look it up in either a haines or chilton's manual. they'll show step by step with pictures. track auto used to let you user their photo copier to make free copies. try another auto parts store if they have open copies of the correct manual.
take the door panel off// on the inside take the rod off the lock assembly//then slide the lock plate off the assembly and remove the assembly
