So my dad who is a very good sound man finally realized what is wrong with my speakers, and we are fixing them. Now I discovered that my Driver front speaker is also bad- we can fix it, but how do I access it? Does the grill come off or does the door panel have to come off?

IIRC you have to take the door panel off to easily acess the screw and the plug that hold it in place.I may be wrong but im pretty sure it has to come off

gotta pull the whole panel off

thats what i thought

Ok, thank you. If it makes a difference, I only need access to the front of the speaker- does the panels till have to come off?

To the front of the speaker......Either way to remove the speaker the panel needs to be removed...I mean if your gonna like throw glue on the cone you can just take the screen off but otherwise that panel has to come off ..

most factory grills dont come off

yeah they do they have little tab things that snap into the door panel..at least in my 97 ssei and in my 94 se they did

but i dont think you can get to those tabs from the front can you?

yeah just stick a thin screw driver inbetwen the screen and panel and pop it out just like you would the dash bezel.....
