How do u lift up the rear deck panel?

i need to lift it up to get to my speakers but i cant because the stupid trims on the side

how do i remove those side trims? i take out the single screw thats there and no matter what i cant figure out how to take it off wtf?

Have you tried getting to your speakers from the trunk?
When I went to Best Buy to get speakers put in, they tried to charge me $90 just in labor to get to the speakers from the rear of the cabin.
I went home and changed them myself with nothng but a pair pf pliers in 30 minutes, no sweat.

well i dont wanna go through the trouble to unscrew screws (from the bottom, not the head) with pliers

the head is right under the panel inbetween the metal and and the trunk sucks!

IF a Lumina is like my Grand PRix, you have to remove the rear seat to get to the rear speakers. After taking the seat out, there are two push-in retainers, one on each end, and four plastic retainers that hold the speaker covers (two per speaker) to the rear deck (accessable thru the trunk). Then the whole cover pulls straight forward, and the 4 speaker screws are accessed from up top. It's a lot easier than it sounds. The whole job took less than an hour. Now that I've done it, I could do it again in less than 30 minutes.

ya im sure i can take out the seat and do it, but someone told me i can just lift it right up without removing anything really

Taking back seats out and putting them back in is probably the easiest thing you could ever do. You could probably get to them from the trunk, sure, but why would you waste time trying to figure it out? Just pop out the seat, pull the deck forward, take care of it that way. Better to have it done sooner, right?

I agree Cad, if the rear seat in a Lumina is like a Grand Prix, there are two pull tabs that release the bottom cushion, 4 bolts at the bottom of the seat back, and two plastic retainers, takes less than 15 minutes, so why fight it?

ya i got it yesterday, there was 2 bolts behind the bottom part of the seat, i just had to unscrew those and lift up

i wanna get seat covers, the ones from walmart/target are pretty universal right?
