2003 Buick Park Avenue - speaker replacement?

[slowchevy]

Anyone know how to go about this? One of the stocks is blown and I have replacement Infinity 6x9's I've had since forever that I have been moving from car to car, seems these GM's have shit 6x9's otherwise "ok" other speakers.

I can't find any visible bolts to remove the seatback to access the deck to remove it to gain access to remove/install newer speakers and there's no way to get them out of the bottom. Anyone?

Can't find anything and I've been searching the 'net for about 20 minutes now. Does anyone know a trick to this?

In order to get my Lumina deck out I have to pull the seat bottom and theres two nutx for the seat back hidden down there. Then the seat back slides up out of tracks. No idea if yours is the same way but it is a try

Try pushing the bottom seat cushion towards the back of the car and then lifting up on the front of it after you've done that. That's how they come out in the old Taurus'. Otherwise you can look for the little plastic pull tabs like the w bodies have but they may have been pulled off. They were pretty flimsy.

Once you have the bottom cushion off then the bolts for the back cushion should be visible. Remove that and then you should have access to the shelf.

Or you can try this:

You can't see the screws from above with the speaker grills off? It's tight but that's how I pulled the 6x9's in the Ville.

There's no speaker grilles, it's all covered in carpet.

I'd ask on PBC but some people don't like me

I'll try the aforementioned suggestions in the morning. Thanks folks. Figure I should do something with my day off tomorrow

Back seats...easy to install, pain in the ass to remove.
