1994 Thunderbird speaker install?

How do you remove the inside door panels on a 1994 Thunderbird to replace the speakers? Also, how do you replace the support speakers? Not the rear deck ones, but the ones surrounded by the side by the backseat window arm rests


Answers:    First I would reccommend getting a Hanyes repair booklet, because they will be able to explain the process much better than anyone on here. Typically Fords enjoy a couple of screws surrounded by the armrest, and "christmas trees" (a fastener used to hold interior pannels within place and resembls a christmas tree) that hold the pannel everywhere else. I would reccommend getting a pannel removal tool, it kind of looks resembling a spatula with a slot surrounded by the middle to get on any side of the christmas tree, to help pry it out lacking dammaging the door pannel.

Step 1: Remove the window crank, or surrounded by the case of electric window, try and remove the pannel that holds the switch, and unplug the wires. If you can't remove the electric window switch, you can unplug it latter by reaching arround behind the pannel.
Step 2: Remove any screw in the armrest and anywhere else holding the pannel to the door.
Step 3: Use your pannel removal tool, or a long screw driver to pry the christmas trees out of the door, hopefully departure them attached to the door pannel.
Step 4: If you haven't unplugged the power window regulator switch do it in a minute.
Step 5: Please note how the door pannel hang from the door near the skylight, if the door pannel is not replaced exactly, the pannel will fit poorly, and cause problems next to the door closing properly. There is a lip on the door pannel that holds the pannel tight to the door and window. Carefully lift up door pannel up and away, prying any christmas trees or removing any screws you missed.
Installation is the reverse of removal.

The reverse pannels would be similar, but probably use more screws, and a lesser amount of if any christmas trees. You might need to remove the put a bet on seat to access adjectives the screws. The trim on the reverse C pillar may or may not have to be removed. Also the sill plate on the door will probably enjoy to be removed to you gain access to all the screw holding the pannel in place.

In my mustang, the reverse speakers were pop riveted contained by place, so I had to drill them out, but a dremmel next to a cutoff wheel, or a grinding gearstick might work as well.
