My car is at the stereo shop. I'll be there in couple of hours and take pics for you. We took out the door panel on the passenger side yesterday and it was pretty easy.
I'll post them here tonight.

the tweeter is only held in by 2 tiny screws on a bracket. the triangle that the tweeter is housed in is only held in by 2 pointy notch thingies...so they pop right off. As for the door panel, just use the how-to and the tweeter housing will pop right off!
i just finished my install finally...with one small prob..i nicked a wiring harness and now i gotta find out which wire it is...cuz my windows dont roll up anymore...DOH!
good luck with your install...ask away if you have more questions.

oh yea, i just ended up cutting one of the posts that is on the piece where the stock tweeter is....and used some dble sided tape to stick it there...i managed to fit the focal polyglass tweeters in there and they fit almost perfectly, a lot better than drilling out the entire piece.

I got to the shop too late and they have already taken out the door panel so I didn't take any pics but here is how-to steps.
Passenger side:
1. Remove the silver part of the door handle, behind it are 2 #10 bolts that you have to unbolt. Remember how the bolts looks like.
2. Lift the elbow rest upward.
3. Remove the panel with the power window switch, unplug the connector.
4. Unbolt 2 more #10 bolts holding the door panel. These bolts look different than the one behind the handle.
5. Pull out the door latch, remove black plastic piece, remove screw behind it with philips screw driver.
5. Pull out the door panel. There are 4 (or 5?) plastic snap on clips holding the panel.
6. Unhook the release cables. Make sure you remember how to put them back in.
7. Remove the tweeter holder.
Driver side:
1. Remove the elbow rest.
2. Remove plastic cap in the door handle and unscrew the screw.
3. Remove switches panel, unplus the connectors.
4. Unbolt the #10 bolts.
5. Unbolt behind the door latch.
6. Remove the door panel
7. Unhook the lock cables.
8. Remove the tweeter holder.
Hope this helps. PM me if you have any problem.
