Jeep Liberty Speaker replacement

[mpimpin]

I need to replace a blown speaker in my 2002 Jeep Liberty. The speaker is in the Drivers side door. I need to remove the door panel but I'm not exactly sure how to do that. I plan on going and buying a repair manual for the Liberty tomorrow since I haven't found much online. I thought I'd ask for advice here first. If anyone knows anything about the Jeep Liberty or removing door panels please post some advice.

Most automotive stores sell something called a panel popper, which basically is a thin metal strip with a handle. It slides between the door and the panel and you can use it to pry it off.

I've done stereo installs on several Cherokees but never a Liberty. If they're similar, there's probably between 6 and 10 connections that will need to be popped out in order to remove the panel.

You'll have to be careful because you don't want to pry against the wires for your power windows, locks, or mirrors. There will also be an assembly for the door lock inside the panel that you don't want to disturb.
