Pretty side you pop the door insert plastic off, undo the one screw and then slide off. just scan around for screws Will be doing this job in next few days so will let you know.

OK, i have finally done this job of removing the door cards to gain access to change the speakers.

thought id give a quick run down incase it might help someone else.

The first time i tried it, i took the whole door card off but struggled getting it to fit back correctly at the top.

The 2nd time, i left the door card attached at the top and gained access through the bottom, that made it much easier to put back togther. You choice though.

First, undo the screw to the side of the door, near the hinge.

Remove the 2 screws that hold he metal door bar/handle (one under a black plastic cover and the other under the door handle sill.

I then LEFT the screw under the door release handle as this time i wanted the door card to stay attached at the top (had horrible time putting it back on the first time!).

I then gently pulled the door card from the bottom. I managed to pull it far enough out to gain access (with a short handled screwdriver) to remove the old speakers and replace with new ones.

Hope that helps for someone.
