    well RT-800i tweeter is installed in the plastic trim on the front.

    Removed the plastic trim, but how do I remove the tweeter from the trim?

    I did it.

    It must be removed with a screw driver to push the side end of the housing on the low end, while pushing on the tweeter from the front.

    I was I little worried about doing this first, but it all worked out.

    Thanks.
