New Speakers

Need some help trying to remove the "button" type fasteners that hold on the rear side curtain panels.Is there a way to get 'em out without breaking them?Or should I plan on buying some replacement fasteners?Thx in advance.

Like Flash said, push the inside tab in. Then pull the whole plug out. Just like that in a FLASH Dageon

NO NO NO NO NO!!!! DO NOT PUSH THEM ALL THE WAY THROUGH!!! They will fall back into a welded panel which is a complete PITA to get them out of. It will take you at least an hour of screwing with grabbling retrieval tools, hoses with tape on the ends, string, pencils, .... You will hate yourself.





Don't ask me how I know this.

:o


They should only pop in about 1/8". This will loosen them up enough to allow you to weedle them out of their holes.
