Default Speaker install question

I just purchased a speaker upgrade kit for 2001 coupe, the question is are the speaker grills removable or do I need to take the door panels and rear panels off?

C5 door panel removal HERE

As Greg said, grill can be popped off in coupe rears, but you may have an issue getting to one of the screws. A dremel can fix that for you (it's under the grill)

Installed the speaker upgrade package from Double D mods in my C5 coupe. Install was pretty easy, popped the rear screens off and was able to remove all four screws with no problem, the door panels came off real easy also. The sound is definitely better, I can actually hear all four speakers.
