How to Replace Liftgate Speakers 2010-16 Cadillac SRX

Hi. I'm Mike from 1A Auto. We've been selling auto parts for over 30 years!

What's up, guys? I'm Andy from 1A Auto. In this video I'm going to be removing and reinstalling the rear lift gate speakers in this 2013 Cadillac SRX. If you need parts for your vehicle, click the link in the description and head over to 1AAuto.com.

Open the lift gate. Next we're going to take this cover off. You can try to take this off with a trim tool. Right here. Right here. Get underneath. It's a little bit tight so I'm just going to use a pick. Just be careful not to scratch the plastic. Get underneath here and pop it off there. Slide it out. Now we're going to take this screw out. It's a T30, so we use a T30 socket extension and a ratchet. There's multiple clips that hold this in underneath here, and then a couple of retainers that go that way on the back, so we're just going to take some trim tools. They actually sell these trim tools at 1AAuto.com. Just go underneath here. Try to pry it out a little bit. You can just grab it with your hands and pull it straight down.

Just got to force it and then the back is going to come this way. Just like that. See these are those clips that are in the back. Be careful not to break those. Then you have all these other retainers all the way around. We got to disconnect this electrical connector. Just push down on this lock. Slide it off. Disconnect this connector right here. Take a straight blade screwdriver just to make it a little easier for you and slide it in here. Just release the lock. Disconnect that connector. Take a 7mm socket and a ratchet. There's two screws that we're going to take off. One right here and there's also one right there. The speaker is a magnet so I keep getting my ratchet stuck to it. Once you get it a little loose it will be a little easier just to do it by hand. Take that one out and there's the speaker.

We're going to take this speaker. Just take this screw and get that started. I'll get the other one started as well before I tighten them up. Take this 7mm socket and ratchet. We'll just snug this up. It is in plastic so you want to be careful not to over tighten it. Just snug. I'll do the same on this one. That's good. Take the electrical connector. Line it up. Lock it in place. I'll take this cover, connect the connector right here. Lock it on. You want to slide these two pins in on the back first. Lock those on and then line up the other guides. There's a guide pin right here. Line that up, and then line the other one up as well. Just push. Go to tap. Install this bolt with the T30 socket extension. Once I get it down, I'll snug it up with the ratchet. Just snug. Not too tight. It is plastic. Take this little cover, line it up, and lock it in. Then we can close this.
