front speaker removal

[benswann at comcast.net]

OK - Thanks, I got it.  Quite simple really and I wish I'd asked before.

I just used a right angle flat screwdriver to access the small tabs located
just inside the vent.  The speaker grill pops out then and leaves everything
accessible.

Was able to get the buzz out of the speaker and life is good again - at least
with the stereo system.

Thanks for the helpful replies.
