Please email them to me too. ramsst1997@hotmail.com

Also does the whole panle have to be removed to gain access to the speakers or does the silver "speaker grill" come out?

Acording to the manual you have to remove the speakers first...

just stuck a screw driver underneath the grill/screen looking cover, and it pops off, revealing the speaker for easy replacement!

this does not work for the rear doors. if you try and pry the grille off you will break it. don't ask how i know!!

To take the front door panels off you have to remove the speakers. And the bottom two white plastic nuts.
Speaker grill just pops off. Put a little black tape on the screwdriver to keep from scratching it.

On the Scab rear doors, take off the bottom two 7 mm screws, then pull straight out with Apollo like strength.

The Reg cab has just one small screw. And is even harder to pull away.

there were like 8 screws/bolts that i had to remove to get the rear door panel off. including the plastic trim around the window which is held to the door with tension clips.

My Bad, the reg cab is one screw, but my Manual shows 'up to' six screws for the rear of the supercab.

I was quoting another post, didn't think to check it against the manual.
Again, sorry for any problems.

is this procedure the same for 05's? I'm looking to take off the front panels to install some new speaker wire runs, and so they are off for my window tinter.

Pretty much, pop the grill off, remove the speaker, remove two white nuts, and then lift the door panel off? I saw that there was a little access panel above the door handle, no screws behind this?
