Well after a painful Sunday I have fitted the driver side speakers all went well apart from the mare I had with the door controller and electric folding mirrors!
Got some basic pics of the install I was busy cracking on with it to take too many as I was changing almost every component in the door not just the spekaers but the controller mirror switch and mirror unit itself!
So you start with this
How to is remove your door trim this is achieve by prying up the driver side door handle and switch block (note the handle itself is made of two bit of plastic dont pull both up as the bit under neath needs to slide back to unclip not up!)
Once you have the handle off unplug the electric window switch and mirror control switch, slide the remaining part of the handle backwards out of its holders to fully reveal the two screws, remove this and put somewhere safe.
Next remove the screw up at the front of the door by the tweeter sail, followed by the 3 screws along the base of the door that sit inside little recesses.
Next is the hard part as you need to use a trim tool or your hands to gently pry the door poppers that run up either side of the door front and rear edge I started at the bottom and worked my way up.
once it popped the door is hanging over the top of the door frame so you need to lift it up and un-hook it but very carefully as you only have a few inch's spare for cabling slack and you will need to remove the speaker cable to the mid range and the door controller cable which is released by moving the pink purple leaver.
The only remaning thing holding your door card on to the door is the handle release, this is a cable that is simply clipped into a holder so un hook the end of the cable and you can then unclip the plastic triangular guide that sits behind it releasing your door card and leaving you with this
The easiest bits to do first is switch over the cross over for the new speakers, this is held in with 3 long bolts as expected its a straight forward swop with identical plugs and fixing points, follow this with the mid range which is held in place with 4 screws.
Now the simple bits are done I tackled the woofer which is held in with 6 rivets, using a metal drill bit and a hand held drill I drilled the heads of the rivets out releasing the speaker but on both sides I was left with stubs.
which I managed to eventually drill out or used pliers to make small enough to fit through the door the issue here is they spinn so using a handheld drill is the best option to avoid damage to the door and I attacked at various angles until the stub fell out.
Once out fish the stubbs out from inside the door there is a drain at the tip of the door if you push them along they will eventually fall out. Then re-rivet the speaker into place with the plug at the top, the aperture for the speaker is shaped with a flat surface at the top so you will find it difficult to install it the wrong way round.
Tweeter next, there is a screw that holds the plastic sail in place remove this and the sail will pull away it is held in place by 3 clips so start at the bottom where the cables disappear and work your way up, once off remove the foam backing and use a knife to scrape the melted plastic off the 3 posts and the tweeter will pry up and come away from the housing.
The speaker fitting kit comes with a double sided foam ring for securing the tweeter and has the holes in the plastic to sit on the 3 posts the kit advices using glue to re cement the top of the posts but I found the self adhesive ring sufficient as the rough posts also held the unit in place (I struggled to pull it off the post as I trial fitted without the adhesive ring
)
You now have to reattach the tweeter sail and make sure the new cabling is secure and out the way of the fasteners, before re-fitting the door card you need to remove all the clips that might still be stuck in the door using a coat hanger is shown on you tube for this job and it works too a point but be prepared to get incredibly annoyed with it.
Refit everything in reverse order but I would suggest once you have re-hung the door card with everything plugged in that you test all speakers and switches are working before re-attaching the poppers on the door card.
Then repeat for the other side
