[DML] Re: Speaker replacement

["John Spangler" <johnspangler@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I recently replaced my rear speakers without cutting anything.  
After pulling off the inner door seal you need to pry off the barbs 
that hold the seal to the inner door.  This will likely tear the 
vinyl a little but they go back where they tore it up so it's ok.  
The rear panels have extra vinyl that is wrapped around the door 
frame.  I simply pried up this wrap with a thin screwdriver and with 
a little patience I had the panel removed without cutting a thing!  
The first one took about an hour and a half, but the second one was 
done and refitted in about 45 minutes.  Replacing the speaker takes 
like 5 mins once you're in there, and that's if you keep dropping 
your screwdriver.

Stock radio now sounds significantly less crappy.  But still not 
great.
