Front driver's speaker.

[ep82]

OK my driver's side front speaker is playing up. sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. If the speakers is on and I shut the door... it stops working. same the other way around. (sometimes)

So I need to check if it's a dodgy connection but how easy is it to get to the speaker?

is it just the speaker cover or do I have to remove the door cards? if so then can someone tell me how to do it?

Philips screwdriver to remove 2 retaining screws at top of panel then 1 that holds trim behind finger pull lever. Then another retaining the window switch trim where you put fingers to close door. Remove both these plastic items then simply get your fingers behind the bottom of the panel and it will pop off to reveal speaker

It's quite simple mate and when they go back on you wouldn't even know they been off. Unlike other cars Mitsi made things easy

Ah sweet. Let just hope nothing will go wrong. I tend to break clips on my previous cars when I attemp to remove the trims. lol

Generally they don't break as easily on mitsi as other cars as lee said.
