Default Door Shade replacement with B&O

My rear door shade sprung its spring a while back and is now just hanging. I'm going to replace it but wanted to know if there is any BTDT for a car equipped with B&O. I assume it requires the removal of the entire door panel? And, fixing bolts are behind tweeter cover?

I read an earlier post where someone had a sprung shade like mine...anyone know if that poster was able to fix the spring, or was the fix just to find a replacement screen at a local breaker yard?

Thanks in advance.

This was one of the easiest fixes I've done on this car. The shade is in a cartridge at the top of the door. I don't see any reason why B&O would make any difference. There is a Torx behind the tweeter grill.
