Default 1997 F150 drivers rear speaker change video

OK. I know I am not Steven Spielberg by any means, so keep the laughter to yourself on this video please. I tried to be informative so people know what a pain in the tucus changing this speaker is if you aren't sure of how to do it.

I listed tools needed in the video, but will also do so here:
5.5mm socket for the speaker screws
10mm socket
15mm socket
18mm socket
T50 Torx bit on 3/8 or 1/2 inch drive socket
T55 Torx bit on 3/8 or 1/2 inch drive socket
Phillips screwdriver
1/2" breaker bar with 18mm shallow socket

Use an air or electric impact if you have one available, and use an air or electric ratchet for the bolts you can't get to with the impact. These tools will save you a ton of time and a lot of sore muscles...

In order of removal....

front seat with seatbelts (T55 and 15mm)
lower rear seat (all 15mm)
upper rear seat ( 10mm )
ex-cab window screws ( phillips head screws )
drivers seat belt nut (15mm)
rear seat belt torx (T50)
push in plastic clip at rear of panel under back window (pencil or phillips, do NOT push all the way through, just til it clicks one time)
pop upper plastic panel off
remove 5 or 6 more plastic push clips, the 2 phillips in the middle of ex cab window, then lift panel up and towards you (DONT SMACK YOURSELF IN THE FACE!!) and watch the small part under the door kick panel cause it will hang up..
thread the seat belts out the slot and move panel out of the way

use the 5.5mm socket or nut driver to remove the screws
replace speaker with a new one or what you are installing.

re-assemble in reverse order.
If you have any bolts or screws left over, some say you did it right!!!

THE VIDEO!!!!!
