[DML] Re: rear speaker replacement

[Louie G <louie@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had a feeling there would be some objections to cutting the edge of the vinyl panel from the fiberglass. If you can heat it up and get it to peel off that's certainly the way to go. The vinyl on Bill's car was just so brittle it kept snapping off and breaking where we'd try to peel it away from the underbody. So rather than damage his trim panel, we just took a razor to it. If you do it carefully it won't make any difference when you reglue it and put the inner door seal back over it.

NO NO NO - rather than cutting the vinyl of those expensive side 
panels, simply pull the large door weatherstripping off, heat the 
vinyl with a good hair dryer, and gently unwrap the vinyl from the 
body. To reinstall it, glue it back in with 3M spray trim adhesive 
(the same stuff you use on the headliner). Heating it when you go to 
reinstall it helps too. This is much neater when finished and avoids 
cutting the vinyl.
