yep
1)take out 4 screws 2 on each side front and back
2)take out the screw behind the door handle
3)pop off the cap in the door grip thing (used to close the door) and there is a screw under it.
4)make sure the door is locked and push teh plastic piece behind the door handle forward and pop it out
5)start carefully pulling around the edges...the rest is just friction fit red pop in things
they pop right out and pull door off till you can unhook the door locks(powerlocks and power window) wireing harness

I think he did mean door panel, I mean who would take off the whole door to drop some speakers in??? Anyways what Talon said holds true, 6 screws and a little TLC gets it off in a hurry. As far as the speakers go, you only have 8 screws total(4 on each speaker and 4 on the pods that hold them in) I would suggest just in the case of a future parting of ways that you don't hack the factory plugs off, just tap into them and go that way. It makes it much easier to drop the stock stuff back in in the event you fel a need to trade in your ride. Same goes for all wiring really. Not sure what else you have in your system, but the easiest way is to (if you have seperate amps) run the wiring back up the center of the car and tap it back into the speaker wires on the adapter that should have gone in with the after market head unit. Just remeber if you are running seperate amps, that you need to run your power wires and signal wires either apart from each other or wrapped in foil so as to not have to much signal nose bleeding over.(the infamous alternator whine)
Otherwise enjoy the sounds.....
