Here's what to do: 1. Use the pry tool to carefully pop up the window switch assembly from the door panel. Then, disconnect the wiring harness from the switch assembly. 2. Take out the two Phillips-head screws located under the armrest. 3. Use your pry tool to gently unclip the door panel from the door. Start at the bottom and work your way around the sides, being careful not to break the clips that hold the panel in place. 4. Lift the whole panel up to free it from the window sill. 5. Disconnect the wiring harnesses on the backside of the door panel by pressing the tabs and pulling the connectors apart. 6. Once the panel is off, you'll be able to see the speaker, which is held in place by screws. Take off these screws to free the speaker. 7. Disconnect the wiring harness from the speaker. 8. Connect the new speaker to the wiring harness and screw it into place. Then, put the door panel back on by reversing the steps above.
