Ooops, dented my speaker grill

Does anyone know how easy it is to remove / replace the Burmester speaker grills in the door? I was putting some junk in my backseat and managed to dent the grill. If I could remove it, I could probably push out the dent, it looks like pretty soft aluminum. Worst case, I would like another one, since I hate looking at a monument to my carelessness for the next 18 months. Any ideas?

Yeah that can be easily replaced. My Speaker grill was dented when I bought the car and I had them order a new one and replace it; MB said it's nothing to replace it really.

See if you can get a dental pick. That might help get it back nearly in shape if you're careful.

Vic, any chance you have the instructions on removing the door panel? I have those little plastic wedges, if I knew where to pry, I could probably do it, but I hate to break anything... Thanks.
