Hey guys! havnt been on in a long time due to no internet hehe, i just got a full set of new fusion speakers for the magna but i cant for the life of me find a tutorial here on how to get the front door panel off to access the speakers in the front doors, i took out all the screws but not sure where to go from there lol, it doesnt seem to move and im worried about breaking something especially cause it has electric windows, does anyone know where the guide is for this?
Thanks heaps in advance!
oh and if there is anyone in the QLD central highlands area (Emerald) that knows how to install a head unit can you send me a PM, i would go to the local place that does it but after what they did last time i dont trust them lol.

im guessing you've taken out the 3 screws
then just grab it from the bottom corner and pull
the trims are clipped on

yeh like roberto sed, the front doors have screws in the handle surround, aircon vent, and in the armrest under a little square (the bit u pull on to shut the door from the inside). once u do this lift from the bottom and pull out and up. its important u pull up coz the top of the trim is hooked over the window sill. like with anything in our magnas therel be that sickening noise that sounds like uv broken something, but dnt worry its just the clips coming outta the holes lol. once all the clips have popped out make sur u unclip the power window loom before u pull the trim too far away from the door. Hope this helps

Have you taken the door handle surround off yet? That needs to come off too.
Also not sure if you are anywhere near the gold coast but i'm happy to help you install the headunit.

Usually the wires with a stripe/line on them is negative. (i think?)

It doesn't matter, just be consistant with all your wiring, pick either - or + for the stripey wire and follow that for all your speakers. Glad to hear you got door trim out ok :).
