cavity. Now move around to the side of the door where it meets the dashboard and remove the two
allen bolts on the door panel. Finally, move up to the separate piece behind the door mirror, undo the
two small allen bolt on the side and slide the piece off towards the window.
Now the door panel is unscrewed you will need to remove it, take great care with this, the panel
needs to be lifted up from the bottom and it will “pop” off the lugs that hold it in place – Don’t drop
the door panel! Once the panel is free, you will need to grab a philips screwdriver and undo the door
handle working from inside the door panel. Then you simply have to disconnect the speaker
connector from the tweeter and the electrical connector for the lower-door light. Now you can put the
panel to one side and take a break, you deserve it!
Okay, now the panel is off, the first thing to do is to remove the old tweeters and replace them with
your new ones, this is very easy to do, just unscrew the old tweeters and follow the instructions you
got with your new tweeters in order to fit the new ones. Now you need to take some drastic measures
with your door cards. Take a look at the photo below:
As you can see, the section in the lower corner needs to be cut back to the same level as the speaker
grille clip holders. Whilst this does mean cutting off one door card mounting point, don't worry, you
don't need it! It won't make your door card loose when refitted, nor will it create any extrs rattles.
Now do the same for the other door.
Okay, the door panels are finished, all you have to do now is to mount the speakers. You will find that
your new 6.5” round speakers are too deep to fit straight onto the door panel without interfering with
the window mechanism, this is why you have just cut up your door panels - You are going to need to
mount the speakers away from the door panel. In order to do this you will need to make (or get
made) two rings of MDF. These rings must be the right diameter to allow you to mount the speakers
into, and, at the same time, they must be deep enough to allow you to mount the speakers onto the
door without the back of the speaker fouling the electric window assembly.
