Bill - I ended up doing exactly that - had to drill it out as the screws were either stripped or seized. At any rate I appreciate your help!!
There was a handle set on the back door which I was able to save - I think someone wanted what was there; if so let me know.
Confederate - when you ask the wrong questions, you get the wrong answers. I didn't come here and ask for help because I knew what I was doing - you don't know what you don't know, right?
I looked in the holes and didn't see anything because I believed there was some sort of special tool - I wasn't expecting to see screws, so I didn't.
"How many cylinders do you have?" 4 because they truly believe they have 4 - not because they are trying to get over on you (at least I hope not...)
