    Removed cap in handle by prying edge with small flat screwdriver. Remove screw in handle. Remove handle. Using small flat screwdriver, pry black hot/cold plate off chrome faceplate. Remove 2 screws in faceplate and remove plate. Remove 2 screws in chrome cartridge cover. Now, using a pair of channel locks or similar, turn the brownish acrylic nut (with all the holes around the edge) counter clockwise and remove. The rest of the parts will just pull out with a pair of needle nose pliers. Just be sure to remember the order in which the pieces come out and reinstall in the opposite order. Do not squeeze the brass faucet body while working on the valve. Its thin and will become out-of-round and leak once its reassembled.
