Hello
I have a front speaker making noise, I guess it's cracked, so I want to know how to remove the grill on the front door, I will replace both speakers.
Thanks
Ian

Remove the entire door panel..

screws are located along the other edge of the inside of the door itself.. one inside the door handle (behind a plastic circle) and another IIRC near the rearview mirror, though don't quote me on that.

Screws are around the outer edge of the door, like Ray said. In addition, there is one screw holding the cover for the side-view mirror, 2 holding each end of the door handle (use a flat-bladed butter knife or thin screwdriver to get the cover off), one behind the door release handle, and one in the front corner (flat part) of the door panel.
The door electronics (window and lock) will unclip, just be careful not to break the clips, as they are very flimsy. You will also need to unplug these switches in order to fully remove the door panel.

Once all of these are off, lift upward on the panel to remove.

That's really dumb. I think if I ever disassemble my door to get to the speakers, I'll mod it so I can take the grill on and off with screws.

Good Luck! It's fully molded into the door panel.

Thanks for your help

Yes it's quite a puzzle to remove the speakers on these cars. I changed the speakers in my Eagle and I just remove the grill. Will be my weekend project
Thanks
