Need to pop the cover off behind the handle, has a small cutout but use something blunt. Used a screwdriver for mine a garked it up a bit. Similar process for the lower handle but took a bit more force to manoeuvre it off. Splits in the middle so the front half comes off. Almost the same process for the rear.
There's one screw behind each of the red circles. Then just slip you fingers between the door card and the door and give it a tug. Starting along the bottom. Just has some clips that pop off with a mild amount of force. Once they're all loose then slide the whole thing up to get over the window lip. Need to unclip the handle from the door card once its removed to get the card completely out of the way along with unplugging the connector for the electric window switch.

It'll then end up looking a bit like that.

Put some Polk MM series front components and MM series rear coaxials in mine along with a Infinity amp. Were 6.5" for both. To my mediocre ears they sound absolutly spot on. And have the power to still be crisp even if cranked right up.
