I was swapping out my WRX mirrors for STI ones and was dismayed to see I had to take the flippin' door panels off. Thanks to your video, I discovered it wasn't as daunting as I originally thought. One word of warning - the clip attached to the tweeter has a tendency to fall off inside the door. I rescued mine once, but lost it when I fiddled with the door again.

This video is on point, I wonder if shops actually take these precautionary measures.

Hmm, you should cut out the sections that are closing up holes in the door... use those to create a template on some galvanized steel sheeting or aluminum flashing, then get some 3M grey/red foam mounting tape and use the metal bits to close off the holes and put a fresh layer of matting over it. You can GREATLY improve mid-bass response in the subie doors if you do that.

25 sq ft. should be enough for all 4 door depending on how crazy you get with it (i.e. doing the inner and outer parts of the door.)

Great job! You did a very clear job on filming too. I am vinyl wrapping my trim pieces and would need to do this. Once removed are there screws or clips behind the door panel to remove the trim around the door handles? Or are those pieces glued and fixed without any chance of removal?

good video bro but I don't think you need to remove the hand grip. it is just an extra process that really isn't nessicery unless it prevented the panel from coming off. You taking that screw out is what holds that handle panel into the door so once that screw is out, pop the panel and take the plugs out if you want still don't have too when the panel is off. I just wanted to see what the speaker plate looked like. I have a pair of 3 ways I am probably going to install. WE will see if I feel like running speaker wire to the door or not for the crossovers lol

I had no idea until now that the front door speaker has a specific size. I just bought 2 6x9 inches speakers for my subaru impreza ST. Now i realize maybe i made a mistake :O, perhaps they wont fit now. Geez!

It most likely will not fit without modification to the door panel which would involve cutting it. I would not recommend doing that if you ever want to go back to stock.

Hey do you need to do all that to remove the leather part of the door? Somehow the one in the right back door panal got sunk in...I need to pull it out but I'm wondering if I have to take the entire door panal off.

I have a question, I plan on changing my mirrors. Mine's a base 2009 2.5i sedan and do I need to remove the door panel to change the mirrors? I see that in your video, you remove the tweeter first at the top and have access to the three bolts holding the mirror before taking off the entire inner door panel. Thanks.

Do you happen to know if the inner door handle and its trim are easily removed? I was thinking of popping out that interior door handle trim and doing some kind of visual modification to it with the test of my interior.

When you put back little speaker next to mirrors, do u just push it in? Mine wouldn't click in, did I break smth in there? I have tried for a while and I just cant figure out putting it in. Any suggestions?

I have a question about this I hope you can answer. I had my driver side door completely removed by a body shop and ever since I got the car back the plastics inside my car have been popping and snapping. This never made noise prior to them having it. Do you know what all needs to be removed to replace the entire door? Do you think all the popping and snapping I'm hearing is a result of them not replacing something correctly?
@DIYallday8 жыл бұрын
The clips are probably no inserted all the way. Look around the door where the plastic meets the metal and see if there a gap. The plastic from the door should lay flush against the metal

Do your door panels rattle alot? even with speakers at low vol? If so whats a good fix? Im thinking of just filling it with some packing foam or something to that effect
@DIYallday10 жыл бұрын
I have some dynomat like material in my doors and they don't rattle much. The right one does a little bit but I think the speaker has just come loose over the years. I could fix it but i don't have the time or work space anymore to work on my car.

I don't know if you got my reply but the speakers are 5x7 front and back. With an adapter you can drop a 6.5" in the 5x7 hole like i did.
