One more thing..... I can tell you how to do the whole thing yourself but it can be a little tricky, but if you're brave here's how it goes..... after you get the lock out, look on the side of the lock, there will be a small rectangular clip..... this is what holds the tumblers in place (this is what they look like http://home.howstuffworks.com/question710.htm ) just a few springs and tumblers..... if you take a small jewelers screwdriver you can gently pop the clip off and remove the springs and tumblers, the trick is to take the clip off slowly so the tumblers don't jump out and get mixed up..... if you have gotten this far you pretty much have it made, you just remove each tumbler keeping them in order..... then you just give the lock a tap and the key will fall out, you might have to open the little dust cover if the key is behind it but thats easy with the little screwdriver.... then you just put the tumblers back in place and pop the clip back on. Try a good key and if it works you know you got everything right

then just put the lock back in

It's actually really easy.... you just have to be careful.
