How do you replace the speakers on a 1996 Chevy Cavalier?

Answer 1

I assume you mean the rear speakers(2 door)... Put some good ones in because you are not going to want to do this again. First remove the trim that runs down beside the front seats. Then remove the rear seat(bottom & backrest) remove the clothes hanger thing, remove the top anchor for the seatbelt, remove the interior sides of the rear seat quarter panels, remove the two plastic trim pieces on each side of the trunk entrance that was blocked by the fold-down rear seatback, lift up on the rear windshield dash....presto!!!! Now you can get at the speakers... The rear speakers were installed before the interior and back glass was put in. The front is just a matter of removing the inside door panel. Roll the window down. Screws at the bottom of the panel and hand hold for closing the door. Go ahead and remove that trim piece that covers the outside rearveiw mirror bolts. Carefully insert a screwdriver between the bottom of the door and door panel.There is a special tool for this job,and it is flat, but you can still use a screwdriver if you are careful. (WORKING ALONG THE BOTTOM) and pry out the plastic push pins.When it is free at the bottom, grab the door panel at the top on both sides and lift upwards in the direction where the window was before rolling it down to dislodge the metal clips along the top of the door panel and then unplug the electric door lock switch if equiped. When reinstalling the panel be real careful not to stab your new speakers with those push pins....It's not real easy if you have never done it before,but you can do it..... Good luck with your project
