I want to replace the doorspeakers in my -98 Contour. Do I have to remove the inner-doorpanel to access the speaker or is it possible to remove just the plastic speaker grill? I tried to remove the plastic grill but it felt like I was going to break something...

 

The door trim panel needs to be removed to get to the speaker/s..
