Is it easy to change a euro cylinder lock? I've looked at a few videos and it looks simple enough so I think I'll attempt it.

Also, how can I tell if my lock is a euro cylinder lock?

Euro cylinders are held in by like one screw right? They are meant to be stupid easy to change.

Are you in euroland? Then you might have one.

>is it easy
depends on you
>how to tell
if it has the same shape and size and not inside a handle knob or anything

The screw that is holding the cylinder in is really tight and I can't loosen it. So I tried snapping the cylinder lock like it shows in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lzX5sSTbig but the cylinder isn't breaking? What am I doing wrong? Is there a technique I am supposed to do?

You need a lock vulnerable to snapping, which you should probably change if that's the case.
Try harder or call your locksmith? They don't bite.
