Replacing rear right door speaker

Hi all, searched "rear right speaker" and the only relevant result from the first 200 directed me to a site that no longer exists. Sorry for asking again.
My rear right speaker (the one in the door) is busted. According to Mymercedesparts, it's only $37. However, I can't find any info on how to replace the speaker. Do I have to remove the whole door panel? Is it necessary to get OEM, or are there aftermarkets that have the same performance?
I'm not currently interested in a whole speaker upgrade, but I'm about to put some down on a Pioneer HU install... maybe the speakers will come later.


Thanks in advance.

THE C350
Just need to remove the door panel and it should be plug and play after that. I would check ebay for a used speaker if you don't really care too much and plan to maybe put in new speakers soon anyway.

Thank you, that's what I thought but was unsure. I didn't know that Benzworks on Youtube had a video-looks at least 3x easier than what I thought.
Thanks again.

Got the speaker today and put it in after I got home. I used Benzworks' YT video as my only reference and they did a good job of explaining things, though I did hit a few bumps.
Yea, I can see why the old one didn't sound good. https://mbworld.org/forums/attachmen...1&d=1402711004

And the new one put in.
