Default Question: how to remove interior panels

Got another question for all you experts: how do I get at my rear speakers (regular cab)? Is everything just snapped in place, or are there a couple hidden screws? Any pieces I should remove first/last? Any specific places to grab before I pull (no jokes please <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> )

It looks like I first remove the panel that runs under the rear window, & then remove the side panels, possibly removing the trim under the door(kick panel?) before the side. Is this correct?

thanks guys.

You have to take the screw out of the cup holder, remove the door handle trim (don't remember if there is a screw in there) and then the whole thing pops off in one piece. pull from the top down.

Greg

Are you referring to an extended cab? I have a regular cab. I just want to make sure everything just unsnaps, that there are no screws involved.

thanks

Look behind the brake pedal and there is a piece of rubber running across. Lift it up and there is a good place to drill a hole. I couldn't get mine thru the factory grommet. I ended up taking my subs out anyway. Too much weight! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Yup, got it through the grommet. These trucks sure pull apart easy. For once I didn't break anything. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Thanks again for all the help & advice
