I know I have asked this on my "Speaker Wattage" thread but maybe someone on here is missing it that knows the answer! I am trying to remove my front larger speaker grills and i can't get them off. I can prise them up and just about get my finger in there but they are solid and won't budge. i really hope I don't have to remove my door cards to get to them. Anyone know if this is 100% the case?

Again, apologies for repeating my question.

I haven't had to remove one yet, but I looked at the parts diagram and there are no fixings shown. The grille appears to have spigots with a stepped end that push into slots. It's not clear how many are on the grille.

Hope this helps,

Phil C.

Unrepentant, if you end up removing door card, could provide a few tips on how this is done. I'm looking to access the external mirror gubbins, so as to apply some lube. They jerk open in a very stuttering kind of way.

Regards

Gerry, with the car locked the mirrors fold in. There is then a hole in the front face of the mirror, which can take your favourite squirt. I use WD40. No more stutter!

I've removed the drivers side door card twice so far to trace a rattle, turned out to be loose card studs. It only takes two minutes to remove the door card; four torx screws and gentle pulling at the six plastic stud securing points. Simples!

The speaker grille is secured to the main door card by 4 x 9mm nuts. You have to gain access to the back of the door card to remove them. The speaker grille does not prise off.
