I decided to attempt to take off the door panel. Man it was easy. I am taking pics as i go. I am uploading some now.






I'll resize them later. Now does anyone know what we can do about the rivots? I will see what i can do.

confucious

YIKES!!!!!

HOW DID YOU TAKE THEM OFF! I WANT TO TAKE MINE OFF TO CHANGE THE FACTORY SPEAKERS!! JUST DONT KNOW WHERE TO START!

ChefRaekwon

It wasn't hard. I am going back outside to take a look at how I can get the speaker off. When I put the door panels back on I will make a tutorial on how to..

Damn, what holds them door speakers in place?

Same setup as on the Matrix - what we used to do is dremel out the old cone from the speaker housing (leaving the black riveted part in), and then just screw the new speakers to the plastic housing (using the housing as a spacer).

Those are plastic covered rivets. They look identical to what was in my XB. I just drilled them out and the speaker came right out.

ChefRaekwon

Yea i was just outside and it looks like a _____. If u gut out the old speaker theres not much to screw the new speaker too. I can't believe they riveted them in like that. Very dumb.

Rodax

They obviously don't want us messing with 'em!

confucious

GOOD LUCK!!!

Oh man I was going to replace my speakers this week.....

Replacing them is easy.

Just drill the center of the rivets out, and they come right off. Reattach with some screws.

I already put a whole system in my tC. What a difference. The factory stuff is so bad.

I guess you guys have some super musical ears. Stock sounds pretty decent to me...

Yea, i do mobile installs as my job and for rivets... just drill out the middle and it pops right off :D
