how the hell do i remove the front speakers???

[jaysem]

hi i'm new to this forum.

i just want to get the standard speakers out from the front doors but they're riveted in (i.e. not with screws). I don't have any DIY tools at uni so what's the best thing to use/borrow to get them off (some kind of saw?).

get a drill and drill them out, the drill bit needs to be just a tad bigger than the hole the rivet has made, then just drill through it and then they come off when all 4 have been done.

i think you need a 4mm or 5mm drill bit mate.

lee.
