Do I need a special tool to remove the front speaker panels from my 07 wrangler unlimited? I'd like to replace them with upgraded ones to improve sound on OEM radio.

Thanks, Pete
 

REMOVAL

WARNING: Disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure to follow these instructions may result in accidental airbag deployment and possible serious or fatal injury.

Ouch even making it hard to change speakers.

Wonder who the person was that set off the airbag while changing speakers to get a warning like that.
 
Things that makes you go MMMMM.. When Chrysler first introduced the Can Bus Vehicles, They also had to develop a Diagnostic Scantool to Be able to talk to the Veh. via the Data link connector with a Can B and C Bus communication.. It was cool at first with all the features that can be controlled with the StarMobile(Wireless Diagnostic Scantool). One of the Features that was removed was the Start Feature. It took one stupid Engineer to start the engine remotely while the other engineer had his hands on the serpentine belt inspecting the pulleys. Neither one of them knew what the other one was doing but nevertheless, Starmobile can no longer Start a vehicle remotely..Stupid Engineers..
