Hi guys. The rear drivers side door card has had the speaker cover kicked in. I'm guessing you can't replace the cover because it's press moulded together?
What's the best way to go about it?
Find a used electric window version card or try and fix it?
Thanks in advance.

You can replace the speaker cover, it does come off the door card.

Hi mate. I should do my research better because I just bought a new one off eBay. Is it hard to get the new one in?
Thanks in advance.

No it's not hard but it can be fidley. You need to make sure you remove all the screws, disconnect the door handle mechanism and any power window loom. You pull the card off from the bottom, it is attached with push in clips then once they are all free, pull out from the bottom and lift up, removing the top section from the window frame.

EDIT from memory, there might only be one screw located behind a small round plastic cover in the door handle recess.

It's all held on by screws, no push in clips at all. 7 screws around the outside, 2 for the door handle (one to remove the handle, one for the plastic support behind the handle), and one behind the door lock.

Yep, my bad, right you are.
