Default Replace key lock tumbler drivers door

I am about to replace the key tumbler in door handle. I have looked at the instructions and made notes but hope someone may ad advice or encouragement? Is there a possible short cut without compete removal of the window, rear window track, radio speaker, etc. I am surprised how hard it is to remove the door handle assembly?
Thanks, capt

We don't see this being replaced at all?

Was it damaged or do you need to rekey the car? Will it match the rest of the car?

We do see a number of door lock actuators that need replaced.

Tbird6, I purchased the car with 1 key that only fit door and ign. Dealer cut key for trunk and glove box that were original to car. Then my ign. key became stuck and won't come out. I found a complete set of new tumblers (4) and (2) matching flip keys at a great price. ($175.) I have installed the trunk and glove box myself and plan on door next so just hoping maybe there was a way around the window removal. I have nice new window tint I'd hate to scratch.
Thanks,capt
