Instructions for replacing speakers?

I've been searching around for instructions on how to remove the door panels to replace the speakers in my 2k3 Maxima SE with factory non-Bose system but haven't been able to find anything. Do they just pop off with clips? Anything to worry about when removing them?

I bought 4 6.5" Infinity Reference speakers and would like to install them myself.

Thanks!

Rear doors:
Remove screw in finger cup, remove finger cup, trim ring around door handle. Then there is a square cut out on the bottom edge of the door you can get your fingers on and pop the panel

Front doors:
Above instructions, plus pop the circular cap towards the top front of the door and remove screw inside.

One thing I encountered was the handle cup has a metal bar around it (looks just like a door handle, so once the door is popped, you will have to jimmy around it a little bit. Kind of a hassle, but once you've done it once, it's easy.

That's why you remove the cup before you pop the door.

I spent about an hour looking through the stickies the other day but didn't see any instructions for removing the door panels.

Thanks again though.
