Default Dash speaker remove

95 850 wagon- I have a dash speaker that has dropped its magnet- therefore no sound. How to remove dash speaker to replace? Must need some kinda magic or something...Dave

Nope, no magic, extremely easy. Pop off speaker grills. There will be two "push pins" that hold the speaker down. Use a phillips screw driver or something skinny and push down in the circle in the middle of the pins and the pin will pop out. Remove speaker harness and then remove speaker.

gilber- Yeah I saw those 2 "buttons", I thought I had to access them from underneath- taking a vent pipe out and such. I'll go try that in a few minutes. Thanks Dave

gilber- Cool! I just popped those little buttons out, glued my (disconnected) magnet back on, glued up a small rip in the paper and she makes sound! I'm up from 4 speakers to 6. (rear door speaker was broken too). Now to the junkyard to find a couple of rear pillar speakers to make it an even 8... thanks, Dave
