The passenger door speaker in SWMBO's 53 reg Corsa has started to rattle unbearably, so I need to replace it.

Anyone on here got a secondhand one?

How easy is it to take the door card off?

Ta in advance.

I'm breaking a '99 Corsa CDX.
I have no idea if the speakers are the same as yours but if they are I could send one.

Nick,

Just done a bit of a search for you and found this info for a Corsa C, not sure if it's your model or if it'll help you out 

Front door speaker - Under the door there are 3 star shape screws, theres one in a hole around the middle of the door card, in the plastic just below the material.  You might also need to take the door handle surround off. then just give a big tug.

Note: you may break some clips but they cost pennies from vaux.

Hope it's of some use

Thanks, Murph.

Not sure. I would guess they would be Corsa B speakers. Think SWMBO's are Corsa C (being on a 53 plate). If someone else could ascertain whether they are the same, I may take that offer further.

Thanks Goose. That's useful.

The only trouble is the throwaway line "you may break some clips but they cost pennies from vaux". You ever walked into a Vx dealer and asked for clips? You would have more luck asking for Lord Lucan's phone number!!

I'll bookmark that lest everything drops off my Miggy next time I go over a speed bump.

No reason why you should break any clips if you do it properly.

As a quick tip, run the cabin heater as hot as you can get it for 10 mins or so to warm up the doors before trying to take the cards off, as it makes everything a little less brittle in this weather

Excellent tip!
