to take off the panel there are a couple of bolts/screws under the inside handle/armrest thing and a screw inside the door handle (that opens the door) then I believe that handle has a cover piece that comes off (should come loose when the screw is removed). then just pop tabs all around holding it on (just get a good grip and pull away or use a panel removal tool and carefully pry it off, there should be a small gapped section at the bottom to get either your fingers in or a panel tool. I am pretty sure the speaker is mounted to the panel so you should only need to unplug it when you get the panel off, also panel goes up over door lock once all the pop tabs are out.

those panel rivets and their sockets are easily damaged so proceed carefully. AND they encircle the entire perimeter of the door panel... even across the top. when you pull the black rubber window seal up and out dont just push or pull up on the panel until all the top row rivets are UN-popped. Just a tip from experience.
