Lightly press the drill against the 3 rivets, drill off the flanges of the 3 rivets and remove the rear speaker assembly.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the drilled rivet as it may become hot.
Note
Pressing the drill too firmly will cause the rivet to turn and result in the rivet not being drilled through.
Do not pry the rivet with the drill because this may cause damage to the installation holes of the rivet or the drill bit.
Continue drilling and push out the remaining rivet fragments.
Using a vacuum cleaner, remove the rivet fragments and shavings from the inside of the door.
