I have a 1994 Acura Integra. I'm trying to install new speakers and I don't know how to remove the door panel nor the rear-side panel. Does anyone have any advice? Does it say how to do this in the manual?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Look in the wells of the armrest and I believe there's a cover you can lift up which will reveal a screw... remove it. Look for the same small cover in the door handle recess and remove it. then check the edges of the panel for a couple more screws which may be covered with screw caps or exposed. Remove them.
Once you find all the screws then you'll have to pry the panel away from the frame. you'll have touse some force to pop the gromets loose. you'll hear loud pops as each one comes loose but dont worry. Just go slow and use gradual force to get em free.
For the rear side panel maybe a little more difficult since the screws (if there are any) may be hidden by the seat but I don't think there will be any for the rear **Integra owners please correct me if I'm wrong** Slide a flathead driver between the panel and the frame entering in the middle of the longest straight edge. Pry gently toward the corners and it should pop off. The top edge probably has to be lifted out and away from the window.
Do a search for a Chiltons manual or Haynes manual on the net and you might be able to download it for free. Or you could go buy a Haynes at Autozone or Pep Boys.
Good luck
