Default Anyone changed the upper door speaker?

Just wondering if there's a technique for removing the clips holding the speaker in place or are they a one time use and if so, are they available?

Thanks but the upper speaker fixings are different to the lower speaker. They look like a cross between the clip with the push-in centre and a rivet.

That was my plan if there wasn't a method of removing and reusing them. Anyone know a part number?

Just look online. All you need is the diameter and length which should be easy to determine. You will need the split type as they 'snap' under much less pressure than the standard solid type.

Not a standard split rivet, they have a plastic part that the rivet forms into a clamp.

Found them. For future reference if anyone needs them, Volvo part No. 979878
