Now in the above post it may look as if i skipped something but I didnt....its just that simple....you just grab somewhere on the door panel and pull...and it pops right out...nothing but snaps holding it in...

Now careful when you pop this out. pull FIRM BUT GENTLY...

2 snaps are on the left side (if you are facing it) and there is a small tab like clip on the right side.

So pop it out then pull to your right...

Re: PICS - Coupe Door Panel Removal DIY and Bose tweet

Last pic is close up of tweeter....you will see it better once you get it out...

it is self-explainitory of how to change the capacitor once you look at it....just need a soldering iron and small wire snips to cut the old capacitor leads....

like I said, I changed both caps to 10uF cap and heard a little bit more clarity at higher volume but i also have an EQ and Amps hooked into my HU (radio)....so you'll have to judge for yourself...depending if you are running stock or whatever..

I noticed no Major difference though

But for anyone else you just needed to know how to get all this off without breaking anything...there is how you do it...

this is MUCH MUCH less hassle than the rear panels!!!!
once again, PM me with any questions!
