"Make sure you have a taper on the ends of the pins." That's why I file a
diagonal - a wedge shape - on the inner surfaces at the ends of my U-shaped
unlocking tool/piece of coathanger.

Yes, the tumbler has a single lock, and so does the cover, that's why
there are two holes.
Make sure you have a taper on the ends of the pins, otherwise they just
stop when you hit the spring(s) and do not release the locks.
The only thing holding the parts in place are the two locking springs, so
once you have them correctlty depressed, it comes right out.
