From the manual, very easy job.
Screw C is the one behind the black plastic bung, just be careful popping it of that you do not scratch the paint. That is all that holds the key lock in the door. No need to take the door panel off. All done from the outside of the door.
Good shout on batteries. Will replace asap. On a plus point I've gained 2 genuine remote keys as spares.Glad Doug is fully functional again. Didn't realise the replacements were ex A4, I know the issues with the housings are very annoying. Good time to replace all the remote batteries, peace of mind. Same reason I replace the batteries every year.
