Removing the door panel to install speakers

[Guest jonathanb18]

i just picked up an alpine deck with some polk audio speakers. i got the deck in no prob but i read on the NPORA site that you have to remove the door panal on the front to install speakers. to looked at it and i cant see any screws or bolts that would take the panal off. anyone installed speakers on a 95 pathy before? thanks for any help

That's spelled "panel" and "screws".

 

First unscrew the door lock cap(if so equipped), then unscrew the armrest(there ARE screws in there, man), remove that, take out the doorlatch release handle cup screw and remove that and it's trim. If you have manual windows remove the window crank handle. By now you should have a bare door panel. The rest of it is held on with plastic clips from behind. Use a wide-bladed screwdriver or panel removal tool to carefully pop the clips off. Then lift up a bit on the panel and shuffle it back and forth to loosen it all up, and it'll come off. You'll see your speaker after it's off.
