How do ya get the outside door handle off so the latch can be removed? Also what connects the inside door handle to the latch mechanism? Need to remove the latch and do some work to it. Thanks

Remove the handle screws, it should be loose, turn the handle 45*(up or maybe down), pull the handle out. It helps if you can see what inside the latch, you’ll fight it the first time to find the 45*

It's the same handle as my Tudor.
