Installing front speakers

Could somebody please point me to a thread that has instructions on how to remove the panel covering the front speakers?
And better yet, then how to install said speakers?
Sorry, I've searched and searched but I can't seem to find the right keywords.

Door panel. I am assuming this is the first step in installing your own speakers. I really want to install 'em myself and (a) save $45 and (b) use this opportunity to learn how. Just afraid I'm gonna mess things up.

Tweeters are project 3. Rears would be project 2. I'm starting with project 1 = frot door panel speakers.

Made the adapter in mdf board and spray painted it black,
The speakers are 6, 3/4 and larger ones can fit, tried an 8 incher subwoofer and there was plenty of clearance.
(Would need a separate amp do drive them do)
Went with these speakers sins their sensitivity is 2 ohms and work well with the Bose.
Tweeters are not used; Image dynamics are mounted in the sail panel.
