Question:
Ok, I am a single female who is comletely home-repair retarded. I bought a new doorknob this afternoon. Is this a project I can do on my own or should I wait until I have someone who knows what they are doing? To give you an idea of my skills (or lack of skills!!) I know I need a Phillips screwdriver (and I know what that is), but the instructions talk about a chassis and spindle, and I have no idea what those are.

If you refer to the illustrations and read the instructions, you should be able to complete the project yourself.
Issues you might encounter are different sizes and orientation of parts, and alignment of components.
If you understand "Righty - tighty, Lefty - loosy", you can handle this, though it may take you a while, and you may wind up reassembling the lock more than once. It isn't "rocket surgery", to paraphrase one of our politicians.

How to change a timing belt in a geo metro?
1. Along the shank or stem of the interior knob is a tiny release. Insert a nail or small screwdriver into the slot to free the knob. Remove the knob’s vanity plate (called the "rose") by simply lifting it off or prying it free if it has been glued down or stuck to the door paint.
2. Remove the mounting plate screws and pull off the plate, then remove the exterior knob and cylinder. Next remove the faceplate and latch on the door and the striker plate on the doorframe (or opposite door).
3. On the exterior side, install the replacement latch assembly. Next install the faceplate. Gently guide the exterior knob and cylinder through the hole until the cylinder engages with the latch assembly.
4. Next attach the interior knob by installing the mounting plate to the protruding cylinder. Install the interior rose and knob and then the new striker plate. Test the latch in the striker plate to make sure the depth and position are right. if any adjustments are needed check here http://www.repair-home.com/keeping_latch...
Does the alignment on your car matter?
It should be easy enough. Just unscrew the 2 screws on the inside of the door lock by the knob. Now there should be a little tab at the base of the knob that you will need to push in with a flat blade screwdriver. This will release the knob and it should come off. The new door lock should be able to go on now. tighten the new screws up and align the trim plate if necessary. Now you should be able to attach the new knob.Maintenance for car emergency brake?
