Dash speaker rattle (1 Viewer)

[DSallean]

Does the grill on the dash speaker (midrange) come off from the top or does the speaker need to be accessed from below? I am getting a nasty rattle from the passenger side dash speaker and I would like to see if it is just a screw loose or something else. Either way would like to fix it. I would appreciate any advice.

Thanks

I thought I had a rattle from the speaker but it was actually from the sunroof cover, it was rattling at sympathetic frequencies.

Thanks for the replies. I was hoping to not have to remove the side curtain portion. Just don't want to mess anything up and then have to see my mess every time I get in the truck. But rattles really drive me crazy in any car. texas, I wish it was the sunroof cover, but i am pretty certain it is coming from the front driver passenger speaker in the dash. True it only happens at certain frequencies. Not sure if the speaker if blown or just has a screw loose.

Do you need to do all this to just remove the grilles for the speakers up where the dash meets the windshield, or they just pop out?

Hey @Sinister
Scroll down this walkthrough Willy posted for another issue, and you'll see where he simply used a trim pry to pop the top grill off. Have a look at the 6th photo in the thread...second post. If you ignore all the scary-looking other doodads he pulled out...it looks like the speaker grill pops out independently.

Thanks for the reply but I may be missing something, his photos only show the center speaker grille. I'm looking to remove the ones in the deep corners of the dash up against the windshield.

Ah. Maybe I misunderstood...
