Is this a Crew cab or the extended King cab model?
Also, this truck comes with 3 main audio package options:
1. Rockford Fosgate speaker (upgrade)
2. Non-Rockford speakers (stock AM/FM/CD player only)
3. Non-Rockford speakers (stock AM/FM/CD changer)
Crutchfield shows you can use 5.25" or 6.5" rounds in front and rear doors.
To get most door panels off, there are usually a number of spring clips or snap pins around the outer parameter of the door panels. Then, we often see a screw or bolt at the door lever that needs to be removed.
You have to locate the snap pins and pry them free from their metal inner door locations. A puddy knife with some tape on it works well and will not scratch the paint. (lower door panel will have several clips and so will front and back panels going vertical toward the window lip)
Once all the clips are free and the door lever screw is out, we lift the inner door trim panel up and out of the track and remove the electrical plugs connected to door locks and power window assy.
You may see a few screws hidden at the arm rests too. Some have trim covers to hide them or they are hidden under the arm rests. In any event, if you experience binding or the inner door panel seems stuck, look for hidden fasteners like screws or bolts.
Since this is a new truck, expect all clips to be tight fitting and the window lip may be a bit snug as well. Some rocking and wiggling is usually enough to get the panel loose so you can get to the wiring harnesses mentioned earlier.
Got all that?
