Inner door panels?

I know its not much of a tech question, but i need to take off my inner door panels to take the speaker out(im replacing them).

All i can find is one screw near the door lever(on the inside). I dont just wanna pry it off and bread snap clips or anyting odd that i dont know is holding it on. Im sure some of you have taken them off before. What is the trick?
It does have electric locks and windows if that makes a difference.

Thanks.

Ian-

Hi Ian,
My 93 has 2 screws located in the carpet about 12" obove the bottom of the door.
Other than that it's clips.

I found one of those screws, the other must have fallen out. Is there a way to take the clips out without breaking them??
Or does anyone know what kind of clips they are?

Thanks

They are the wire type snap-in clips. Just take a scraper or a flat blade screw driver and slowly work your way around the door. Dont forget to take off the door latch. Pull it back and you will see a 1/2" capscrew. If you do lose or break any of the clips. Any parts chain will stock them in the HELP! section of odds and ends.

They are metal (wire) clips. You should be able to pull them out without breaking anything, but a notched upholstery tool can squeeze the clip and help un-do it.

The Napa part # is 665-1103 that buys you a package of 22 wire trim panel fasteners. I think the package is like $6.50
