HOW TO 2005 Monte Passenger Door:


Remove Screws on handle pull, 2 and 1 underneath. 1 screw on door handle lever, 1 screw near mirror.

Remove bezel around door lever, you may have to open the lever to get it to come off.

there are push clips surrounding the panel pry or use your hand to work the edge of the panel away from the door. working your way around the perimeter of the door. It should just pop off, you may have to lift up slightly.There will still be stubborn clips for the window and door lock. you need to squeeze them to get them loose, the door lock bezel can be flipped sideways and slipped through the opening to allow more room. it may be easier to have someone helping you.

you don't necessarily need to remove the electrical clips if your just going to replace the speakers, you could flip the connected panel 90 degrees.

You cant get the door pull bezel off it is screwed from the backside, you could unscrew the bracket to have more access to the electrical clips.

I took mine off it was a pain. First of all they have posts that go through the panel and these posts have their tips melted much like a rivet holding the ovels in place on the inside quarter panel think of these post as a plastic rivet.

I took my whole inside quarter panel off (Yep rear seat has to come out too) I then had to clip the melted part of theses post off from the underside of the panel then the ovels will come off.

Why did i do this? I covered these ovels with red leather
