I just noticed the passanger side pillar speaker has a big dent in the mesh grille. Anyone know how to remove so I can repair or replace? Any help is appreciated.

I have the same problem, but on the driver's side. It happened when the door was taken off to take out a dent. Unfortunately I only noticed it later...

I was contemplating trying it with some dental floss (but haven't tried it). Get it?

Not that bad of a problem, but how to create these dents I do not understand.
The sound should not change that much.

Look up the speakers here.

I tried to remove the dent from the outside didn't work. does the mesh grill come off from the outside or do I have to remove part of the door. Does anyone know. Thanks
