This guide explains how to remove the speaker located in the cabin near the headrest of the rear seat in a Volvo S40. Gently compress the speaker connector with your index finger and thumb and disconnect it. A tip: for better access, lower the seat in line with the speaker to create more space.

Using a flathead screwdriver, remove the cover.

Due to the rear window, it may be difficult to remove the screws, so it's better to use a ratchet. Remove the four screws securing it and extract the speaker.

Done!
