hmmm remove the red thing from the snipper button /lock and remove the button, undo the screw behind that remove the door handle? undo the two screws holding the door handle on (under the cover where your remote for the windows is) undo the connector to the mirror switch on the drivers side theres a few screws down the bottom of the trim undo them undo the screws in the vents and remove the vents if memory serves there are screws also behind the vents too remove the trims covering up where the mirrors go carefully lever the door trim off. that should be all really the speaker lives in a plastic holder attached to the door - held in by 4 screws also. remove and away you go. hope this helps...

yeah i have done this before... there are clips that you will have to pull off which hide screws on the armrest. also realise that this isn't like a vl there are screws all around the airvent area and there will be 4+ parts sitting on the floor before you even take the doorskin off. be prepared to pop out air vents to show screws.

^^ what they both said, the vr/vs is a little bit tricky with hidden screws etc but once you do it once, its easy as.
