24 valves breathing pure heaven into the thing

I'm in the process of changing the speakers in my car. I've already changed the rear speakers, which where a real pain in the ass because of the place the scrues where fitted (directly under the rear window). Anyway, that's sorted now, I installed a couple of Blaupunkt GTx663 3-way 220w. Now, I want to change the door speakers too, but since I'm very new to taking apart panels and such in cars, I wonder how I can get the speaker covers off in a decent way?  Do I have to take the whole inner door panel off, or can I just take off the "panel" that is covering the speakers? Any help appreciated  |

whole panel has to come off buddy, just make sure your carefull with the red clip on the door lock pin - its most likely going to snap. not the end of the world though and the panel is really easy to come off - like any other really.

Thanks for the help both of you:) The previous owner told me the door card had been taken off one time, so maybe this pin already is broken? I wan't be able to chech this in a couple of weeks anyway, I'll be gone for a week or so.
BTW: Does anybody know the size of the front door speakers?

Its a matter of personal taste really and what you want the item to do, specifically, do you need blue tooth or Ipod connectivity, I've not had anything to do with LG units but as a recommendation have a look at http://www.justkenwood.co.uk/default.aspx |
