How do you remove it, does it just unscrew?

I was trying to find the post on the S4 forum with pictures. I guess they deleted it because of that

Default IIRC you have to remove the door skin (It's easy, 5 screws)

to get at the pin mechanism. Look through the hole they punched, you should see a rod going up to the door pin, that's what they're using IIRC

Default So if you remove the driver's side lock peg, is the pass side still vulnerable?

Dumb question, yes...but I don't know what you're talking about. So are the dr and pass side the same? We wouldn't want them prying the second door open to get in, now would we?

Only the driver's sde has the keyhole, which is how they get at the pin.
