I am wanting to replace the lock barrel in the boot handle. I have removed the boot handle. How does the barrel come out? do you have to prize off the top hat shaped washer first?

I believe you have to file down the shaft to allow the 'top hat' washer to come out.

I agree about having to file the shaft its burred over to hold the top hat washer.
