Default How to remove Speaker (Tweeter)?

My left front tweeter on the dash seems not to be working. I was wondering how would you remove it to see if any of the connections came lose or if it's blown.

Many thanks,
MC92

PS: Is there a way to repair blown tweeters?

The cover just pops off then there is 2 clips holding it in. Push the center in and when it clicks pull the entire clip out.

Then pull the tweeter out. The magnet usually falls off.

If that's my case, is it possible to put the magnet back on? There wasn't a clear anwser when I was looking online.

I have never been able to make one work again after the magnet fell off.

You're spot on, the magnet did fell off. It fell and roll against the firewall. However, great news! I was able to super glue it back on and duct tape around the magnet to the base so it won't fall of again, and now it works!
