I did it so you should be able too.

Try a right angle screwdriver, it helps.

Had the same problem. I just cut out a small piece of the plastic to get to it. Its totally hidden under the pillar cover.

i finaly get the side panels out and remove all the screws for the speaker... AND THE SPEAKER WONT BUDGE!!

its almost like they superglued the speaker to the pillar.. wtf

i snapped the tip of a tool i was using to try and pry it loose like.... why has this been done?

can someone please tell me how to pop these lil bastards out.. omg this 10 min project turned into 3 useless days :@

Try HEAT, they sometimes used a glue to hold the speaker in place

I used a flathead screw driver and wedged it between the speaker and the metal, it came right off for me.
