I'm in the process of replacing stock speakers and have reached a bit of a snag. I cannot seem to get the door panels off ... i've gotten as far as popping off the pastic peice where the power window controls are, and unscrewing a few screws. next i lifted up on the entire interior of the door, which seemed to lift it off the frame .. but around where the speaker is, it seemed to be more connected ... which would make sense because i would assume the speaker is bolted into the frame .. there is a plastic grille around the speaker, and i could get that peice 35% off before i felt like it was just about to bust .. any help would be excellent ...

Brave man. If you damaged any of those plastic rivet deals, you can find replacements in the HELP! section at the auto parts store.
