Default Back Speaker

Well I changed my driver side door speaker earlier, and my passenger side back speaker. Not sail panel speaker but my back seat passenger speaker. How do I go about getting the speaker out to put in a new one?

The back seat speaker IS the sail panel speaker. You can get to the sail panel speaker by simply removing the grille.

Oh my bad...I was thinking saily panel would be the ones where the trunk area was, so all I do is remove that plastic grille looking thing with say a flat head screw driver and it pops off?

Yes, pretty much. It seems that a small number of f-bodies had those grilles glued in from the factory, so if it doesn't come off easily don't pry hard enough to break it.

cool, thanks, so once it's off I hope it snaps back in..if not I guess some glue won't hurt it

It should just snap out and snap back in. Just be careful. Especially if it's cold because it makes the plastic more brittle.
