I've searched this site, but maybe I'm using the wrong query.


Does anyone have instructions on how to remove and replace the front and rear door speakers on a 2015 Lariat with the Sony "Premium" system?
I suppose the speaker access is the same on all of the trucks, but I felt I should be specific, just in case.


I'm not gutsy enough to go torqueing away on my new truck to figure it out, and would prefer some insight from those with experience.


Thanks,


Jeff

 

Front and rear doors are the same with only one additional screw on the front door behind the side mirror panel.
First thing is to remove the silver cover on the handle. Look underneath towards the front of it and there will be a small slot that you can insert a screwdriver and pry it off... There are two 7mm bolts behind it.

 

Sorry the pic isn't better but there is a small slot under there. Screwdriver worked good for me. Make sure to pop the front of it out first. The back has a tab that slide in, not clips like the front.

 

Now for the fun part. Below the piece you just removed is a small black panel. Find something small enough to fit behind it and pry the top back. The top has clips and the bottom has tabs so you want to pry out the top. The clips are pretty tight so it may take some force. I used an L-shaped pick tool and it worked pretty well.

 

This is what it looks like pulled back.

 

Once that is removed there are two 7mm screws behind there. Once those are out look at the very bottom of the door. You guessed it, two more 7mm screws.

 

Thanks for posting, this is very helpful!

 

That's it for the rear doors. Just start at the bottom and pull out till all the clips are released. Then pull the door up to clear the window trim and lock. Reach behind and remove the electrical clips (all really easy) and the cable attached to the handle. I will have to say the design on that is awesome. Much easier to remove them traditional style door handles.
For the front doors, before pulling the door off, remove the mirror panel on the inside and there is an additional 7mm bolt that needs removed before the door can come off.

 

I think that's it. Hopefully it helps.

 

Thanks S.Archer!
Great explanations and pics. That really helps a lot!
