Stereo speaker issues - help...
The lower left speaker in my 08 Coupe (with the 2LT pkg) sounds like a box of rocks. Car only has 1200 miles on it (4 mos old), and I've never played the stereo very loud. A couple of questions...
- have others experienced this problem (sounds like a defective or blown speaker)?
- If I wanted to replace it myself, is it possible to get to it without damaging the door components? From a quick look, it doesn't look obvious how the speaker cover would be removed...
Any help or advice on this would be appreciated!

Sounds like a defective speaker that should be replaced under warranty.
Mine sound fine. It's my understanding you must remove the entire door panel to access them. Not hard. Do a search or cruise on over to the audio forum for how-to's...
