Changed mine recently on the facelift, it is different to a pre facelift, there are pictures on here, have a look on the search pages for door card removal, it easy to change, just a bit awkward.

The solonoid from a pre facelift should fit a face lift but the electrical plug might be diff. remove the door card and you will see the solonoid and lock. ;)
