Replacing door lock actuator on 2001 Camry?

I need to replace the door lock actuator (driver's side) on a 2001 Camry. I just need to replace the actuator part that contains the motor and already have the part for this (Toyota part number 6912033010, https://parts.toyota.com/p/Toyota_2001_Camry-LE-VIN-JT2BF22K-30L-AT/Door-Lock-Actuator-Motor-Left--Front-Motor-to-lock-and-unlock-car-door/63083653/6912033010.html).

Are there any good instructions or videos on how to do so? I know the interior door panel needs to be removed first and I can find a lot of youtube videos on how to do so and that looks fairly straightforward. But I can't find anything on how to remove the actuator that's inside the door.

Would a repair/service manual cover this subject?

Here's one from 1-A Auto on you tube:

That video is for a 00-07 Toyota Highlander though. Looking for one on the 4th gen Camry (97-01). I found one at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2jn9j-tXxU, but I don't think it's a very good one as it doesn't show in detail how to get the actuator out.
