Pulled the driver door lock out after work yesterday and just dropped it off at the locksmith to get a couple keys cut. Carefully pulled the inner panel off - both doors appear to have very good panels, so I didn't want to mess it up - peeled the vapor barrier back a bit, and was able to remove the lock without much issue.

Took a while for the guy to get to it, but got a call from the locksmith and went to retrieve the lock and new key today. When I showed up he asked, "Did you bring me the driver's door lock?"
"Yes."
"That's what I figured. This thing is really worn out, where there should be peaks it's just about flat." He wasn't sure the key would work in the other locks, but I got home and tested it out - good to go! A little tight, but about what I would expect with a new key.
With that test complete, I went ahead and reinstalled the lock in the driver's door. I need to get a 2nd key cut (he only cut me the one, since he wasn't sure it would work in the other locks).
