Could be a PITA. Have you removed the door skin or inside panel? Are you trying to remove the rod at the interior lock button, the latch itself, the exterior lock cylinder, or the power lock solenoid?

The rod goes into the lock button from the top down. You have to move it up to remove it.

Good luck and let us know. :)
