[Motorola] Motorola lock core removal

[KB0NLY]

Actually the cylinder is the lock, the part the key turns is the core...  At 
least that’s how locksmiths I know always refer to them.

But yes its just that easy to remove these.

It's actually called a 'cylinder'.
Insert correct key.
Unlock.
With key still in the cylinder, insert a straightened paperclip in the hole.
Cylinder should pull out.
