I have a 99 Accord Coupe and I want to upgrade the speakers. I was wondering if you guys had a tutorial for that.

 

Which speakers? The rear speakers are cake. Are you talking about the front door panel speakers?

 

Yeah, the ones in the front. I just need to know what to do to remove the door panel.

I've also heard that some people buy these plugs that make the process of installing each speaker easier.

 

Any basic service manual (Haynes, Chilton, etc.) will have that information for you. Those will be available for about 10 bucks at any auto parts store. Also, autozone.com has some basic service guides that would have the information that you are looking for.

In general, the process will involve removing a few screws that hold the door panel in place and then pulling off the panel (there will be clips that hold it in place). A trim panel remover (basically a flat piece of plastic) would be helpful in making sure that you don't harm your door in the process but is definitely not necessary.

 

speakers are quite easy to replace. look around the inside of your door for little plastic squares or circles that you can pop out with a flathead screwdriver and underneath these covers are the screws/bolts that hold the door on. other then that the panel should easily pull right off the door. i start at the bottom and go up both side pulling the panel away from the door. then you lift up to clear the window gaskets on the panel from the upper part of the door. now your panel should be basically removed except for some electrical connectors for the door lights that are easily seperated. now for finding speakers that will fit. crutchfield.com makes it easy to type in your car and see what you can fit where. i however never purchase there due to prices being way too high. a lot of speakers come with mounting kits and bolts to help make it easier to mount your aftermarket speakers. when i installed my alpine 6.5s in the front i took out the old factory speaker and then removed the factory speaker mounting piece(plastic). using pliers i cut the factory piece so that the new speakers could would fit(depth wise). then i bolts the mounting adaptors my speakers came with to the factory mounting piece and after that the speakers easily were secured to bracket(combination of adaptor bracket and stock bracket). then with speaker intact you bolt the factory bracket back where it came from and hook up your positives and negatives. to get the panel back on first reconnect any electrical connectors that were unplugged and then slide the panel onto the door at the top. with the top engaged in the door you can now push along each side of the panel to snap it back into the door. start at the tops of the sides and move towards the center of the bottom.

hope this helps
