Has anyone removed the front speakers in a 124? I assume the grille comes up and the speakers come out the top. Anyone BTDT? any advice will be appriciated. TIA
Loren, if your '88 is like my '87, the angled trim strip to the inside of the grille can be pried up. There are two screws underneath. A stubby screwdriver and a helper with small hands will help to get them out---there isn't much clearance between the windshield and dash at that point. After that the grille comes out pretty easily---it has to be slid towards the inside, out from under some trim at the A-pillar, and then up. At that point I think it's obvious how to get the speakers themselves out. I seem to remember that they're just held in by friction, but replacements will probably have to be screwed down into new holes unless you shell out for the Rainbows that are an exact fit (i.e. $$$).
