Rear speaker removal?

Does anyone know how to get the rear speakers off? I looked around a bit but didnt see any obvious screws or clips. I know it might involve removing the rear seats but I dont even know how to get started on those, Help! (did search...no result)

Start.....

I can get you started in the seat department, after that let us know how you do it!

The bottom seat cushion just has two metal clips at the front - grab and lift straight up, and out.
The seatback has two (14mm) bolts at the bottom, and two clips at the top - undo bolts, then lift straight up, undo seatbelt from seat, and out.

Post a little 'how to' when you get the speakers out!

To get to the rear speakers you have to remove the 2 outer side deck pieces (the middle stays). To remove the rear decks, you need to first remove 2 plastic pop-out pins along the front where the seatback hides it, one is close to the seatbelt and the other one is along the middle. Next, apply constant lifting pressure starting from the front inner corner to pop the deck piece off the holding clips, there are 2 big metal clips you need to pop through but as long as you do it slowly you should not break anything (i have taken mine out twice without problem). After this just lift the plastic piece away from the rear window to expose the speaker. the speakers are easily removed from the metal car frame.
Reverse the procedure for reassembly but don't forget to twist and pull out the metal clips from the car frame and reattach them to the deck piece you remove for ease of reassembly. Just pop them back in with firm pressure especially where the metal clips are. reattach the 2 plastic pins you remove earlier then reassemble the seats. TADA!
