Take both handles - old and new.  Undo the small (8mm?) nut on the back
of the cylinders and push them out.  Pop the old cylinder into the new
lock.  Take a little care realigning the centring spring.  Put the nut
back on the new one.  Pop the nut and centring spring from the old one
in the spares box and throw the old handle into the woods.

Grease.  Especially the catch and post.
