Default S80 - How to open the door panel?

The small speaker in the driver's door is not working. I like to replace it.
I have problem opening the door panel. I removed all the pins and the screw.
The panel is now loose, but doesn't come out. Do I have to remove the frame around the handle? I can pull the top, left and bottom of the frame out, but the right side (the yellow arrow in the photo) is very firm. How to pull the right side out? Is it a straight pull? Or at a certain angle? Do I need special tool? Thanks.

If you pull most of it out some you should see a tab by where the arrow is. Usually you can use a small screwdriver and pop it forward some to release the frame.

Hello Tech, thanks for your reply.
I just scrolled down to the bottom of the page and found that another user posted a similar question back in Sept-2007. You replied: "3.Removing the panel is easy.In by the grab handle to close it a cover with 2 screws under it. remove those screws."

How many screws are there? I only found one under the cover. Where is the other screw?

There might only be one on yours. The older ones I believe had 2 and the newers ones have one.
