I had the exact same question about a month ago.

After reading the archives, which reassured me that I wasn't missing
something obvious, I did the following:

Open the back hatch.  Unscrew the panel that surrounds the a/c intake
and remove the panel.  Reach around the a/c unit (long, skinny,
simian-like arms are helpful) on either side to remove the speakers.
They've got a retaining ring that you unscrew that holds the speaker
grille that you see from the front against the wood panel.

Good luck.
