Speaker grill

Folks, are the speaker grills removable from the front without having to remove the door-card, or do I have to remove the door-card and push them out from the inside? A careless kid creased one of my rear speaker grills. It's only a small crease, roughly 1cm, so I figured I can press it out.

Cheers
Steve

You have to take out door panel, but it is a simply job.

As an alternative, bend a thin paper clip 90 degrees and very carefully insert in the middle of the crease. You can then use the hook you created to try and pull the crease out.
I successfully used this method several times, you only have to find somerhing thin enough to insert without damaging the grille from the outside.
