DIY for lock actuator?

I have searched for the above but can't seem to find anything on it. Not trying to be cheap, but if I can replace a $40 part without paying for 1.5+ hours of labor at almost $80 per hour, I would like to give it a shot. Anybody have anything on this (driver's side, master lock actuator), or have some door panel removal instructions/hints/tips? Thanks.

i'd like to know too..i have a 99 tl as well.
my remote door lock/unlock started bugging out last week..
symptoms seem to point to actuator.
i can hear the internal noise around the locks when unlocking, locking, but the lock itself doesnt move on the driver side door.

Very late bump but I'd like to know as well because my rear passenger door won't open from the inside or outside. The other three doors open fine from the inside and outside. I guess it has to be the door actuator?

Yeah my passanger lock acuator is gone too, my best friend when tring to figure out how to do anything is the acura service manual, well worth the $60, especially if your tl is out of warranty and you plan on keeping it for a while.
