Default Rear Deck Woofer Replacment?

One of my rear woofers is vibrating badly.

I have the Bose system.

I want to replace it.

How do I get the grille cover off the top of the speaker on the rear deck to access the screws that hold the woofer onto the rear deck without breaking it?

Any suggestions for a replacement 6.5" woofer for it?

I have heard the Image dynamics CX62 mentioned.

Others say just use the stock Bose unit.

Take plastic clips off carseat anchors(3).

Remove bolts.(3)

Pull entire panel up. Might make it easier if you fold both seats down.

Check the tape holding speaker wiring. Hopefully thats all thats vibrating and your speaker is actually fine. Do the test with the radio on so you can SEE whats going on under the panel.

Silicone RTV applied to the seam should work fine.
