>I'm going to install new door locks that I purchased. Can I use that tool
they have at every Kragen auto supply store for removal of teh door handle
work. Do I have to purchase some other tool somehwhere? Should this be
pretty easy?

Rolf, unfortunately, no. This tool is for removing the spring clip
typically
found on American cars. Your TR (you don't say what model but I assume
it is a in the TR2-6 range) uses a round pin through the center. To get it
out
you need to push back the door panel (there is a spring underneath) and
the round trim piece to expose the pin and then push it out with a small
drift or a nail.
Lower tech and more difficult but it doesn't require a "special tool."
