Default Does Any1 Know How 2 Open Driver's Speaker Near Door Handle?

I am trying to insulate that area cuz everytime i drive, it rattles, even with no music.

if all fails, it's dealer time. i hate going to them. i've been back there like 45 times now. i need to get my sunroof fixed. it rattles when it's open and the shade rattles (only when it is open) but the roof needs to be closed. cuz when i open the roof the rattles stop and when i close the shade, the rattles stop.

but back to the topic, hopefully someone can help me out. i just need to open that little rectangle section near the door handle and hopefully, i can see the little speakers or tweeter, whatever they are called, and foam tape it.

Why dont you just take panel off? Im 99.9% positive theres no way to access any of that without taking door panel.

yea you have to remove the whole door panel cuz the speaker grill is attached to the panel.

You don't need to break anything

Walkthrough in sig...it's pretty easy...but if you aren't comfortable, make the dealer do it.

everything is jus clipped on from the door panel to the door so you just have to gently pull of the door panel to remove the white clips that hold it in and also unscrew 3 screws.

I see that you're in Portland. Come out the meet & greets and we'll help show you how to remove the door panel. Check out the PNW section for more info.
