Door Handle Lock Tumbler Removal 120-130 1962

Hello!
I'm a trying to remove the lock tumbler on the exterior door handle of my 121 Amazon. I have the handle off the door, and can open up the button mechanism, but it's not clear how the lock tumbler comes out of the button.

With the key inserted, the lock spins 360 degrees around, but I must be missing something that will allow it to come out of the button.

I would appreciate any insight or advice on this. Trying not to break anything! :-)

Thanks.

    Well, the answer was right there under the gasket! After removing the button from the handle, and also sliding the rubber seal off the button, it's obvious. There's a small pin that can be pressed out of the button allowing the lock tumbler to slide right out the front of the button. You don't even need the key!

    Easy stuff! I just needed to look a little more carefully.

    Cheers!
