My 99 Forester had snap out panels that made speaker replacement a breeze. My '06 has no snap out panels on the doors. How do you replace the factory speakers? Does the entire door trim panel have to come off. If so, would someone please give a clue on how to remove them? Also, do the newer Foresters still take a 6" round speaker? Thanks.
