Removing a few things to help save weight, need help!!! Hey, I am removing my radio, all the speakers, and the ac/heat control panel (gonna remove all that from behind the dash when I pull it to do a 10-point cage), and i'm havin a little bit of a hard time with the stereo, first off, how do you get the thick black wire out from the back of the radio, and second, how do you get at the speakers, do the black grilles just pop off and give you access, or do you have to remove the door panels? Thanks for any help guys!

Yeah, you have to remove the door panels to get at the speakers. As for the antenna wire, I'd just cut it if you can't get it out. If you want to do this completely you should take your whole dash out and chase the wires one by one. I had about 10lbs of wires, looms, and harnesses for Sound/AC/airbags.

That explains door panel removal. And yeah, taking the dash out is a bitch. But I'll probably have to take mine out again when I "revise" the ventillation system.
