Kick panel removal/speaker installation?
Is there any trick to taking the OEM Kick Panels out of my 72 GMC Shortbed Fleetside, and install a set of Kick Panel Speakers?
Any info/help/links would be appreciated!  Roger "RATIKLE"

Those speaker panels are installed over the existing kick panel and require some modification to the speaker panel to fit.

Re: Kick panel removal/speaker installation?
Basically they are telling you that if you cut the kickpanel you will be in the drain area for the cowl.The kickpanel speaker panels are available from vendors and install over the existing kickpanels.
