Blown Speaker

[King Al]

Hi All,
Help needed! It sounds like I have managed to blow the rear offside door speaker on my 1997 A8 "Concert" system I've had a good look at the door and I can't see any where to put a screw driver or see a way of taking off the cover???
Does any one know what size speaker this is or what a suitable replacement would be? How I would go about fixing it, can I do it, or do I need to take it to Audi???

Cheers
Al

From Elsawin - have never done it myself:

1) carefully prise the cover strip out using a screwdriver (normally this is the wood strip
2) press the pin in the expanding clips in 4mm and remove
3) using blunt screwdriver lever the botton of the recessed door grip off.
4) remove the bolts for the top part of the handle an lift out
5) looking down into the hole you will se a hexagon bolt - remove this
6) remove 2 screws at top of trim - one near hinge the other on side of door
7) if you have electrical seats remove the switch - one screw
8) Carefully unclip the door trim from the door frame (use fingers to pull out)
9) fix speaker!!

Clips part number is 4D0 868 307 (split rivit) if you break any - for the wooden strip
Trim clips that go around the door - 4D0 867 299 D

Hope this helps,

Walter.
