I'm this far. I took off the arm rest, and window crank. With a flat blade,
I popped the door covering off of the door from the front so that I got good
access to the speaker. Mine has a round  4-5" piece of plastic bezel that I
simply unscrewed with my hand.The speaker is attached to the front with some
kind of adhesive. I saw another speaker where the same aforementioned bezel
clipped on. Without too much bother I heard on the list that the maximum
size you could go was 5 1/2"
.

Carl and List,
I just removed my door speakers recently, and I fought with them for a while
too.  I removed them by sticking a folding allen wrench into the holes in
the speaker grill, unfold 2 of the wrenches so you have a 2-prong tool, and
hold the back of the speaker with your hand, and turn the 2- prong tool
around and it unscrews the front of the speaker without destroying it.
bye,
Kim
