I've had my '05 XRS from new and it has just a few ticks under 110,000 miles on it and I just noticed that one of my rear 6 x 9s are blown. I got a great deal on a pair from a local store and was wondering if anyone knows how to access the rear speakers?

All of the instructions I've seen are for non XRS models and mention folding down the rear seats, obviously something I cannot do.

Thanks

so far i know you have to take the whole back seat off, since XRS back seat can't be fold down. after you take the seat off and just follow the normal steps.

Thanks for the link. Looks like the consensus is to remove the whole rear seat. Any idea if the seat architecture of the XRS is different from the other models?

I have a road trip from Chicago to Toronto at the end of the week, and don't want to be stuck with a speaker rattle.

Just in case anyone was wondering

Just in case anyone was wondering, this is why the rear seats do not fold on the 05 XRS.
