Owners of other Nissan and Infiniti vehicles such as the Rogue, Pathfinder, Armada, Versa, Sentra, Altima, Maxima, Leaf, 370Z, GT-R, Frontier, Titan, NV200, Q50, Q70, Q60, QX30, QX50, QX60, QX70 and QX80 may also find these DIY instructions to be helpful.

The tools needed to remove the door panel include a small plastic pry bar tool, a flathead screwdriver, a 10mm socket and a 1/4" drive ratchet.

The OEM door speaker can be removed with a 10mm socket and a 1/4" drive ratchet or a Phillips head screwdriver.

Use a plastic pry bar tool to gently pry off the sail panel located at the top inner corner of the door panel.

On some models, the sail panel may contain a tweeter speaker that will need to be disconnected.

Then gently pry up the rear edge of the switch panel and the side of the switch panel until it can be fully removed.

Do NOT pry up the front of the switch panel. There is a plastic hook at the front of the switch panel.

Lift out the switch panel and turn it over to access the electrical connector.

Set the switch panel aside in a safe place.

Next, move to the door pull well in the center of the armrest.

There is a plastic trim piece that covers two screws.

Move to the door opener handle.

Gently pry out the trim piece located behind the door opener handle with a flathead screwdriver.

Set the trim piece aside in a safe place.

Set the bolt aside with its corresponding trim cover.

You could also use a Phillips head screwdriver.

At this point, you should have removed four plastic panels or covers, one bolt and two screws.

Insert the plastic pry bar tool in between the bottom edge of the door panel and the metal door frame.

Firmly pull out the pop rivet friction fasteners all along the bottom edge and both sides of the door panel.

Tilt the top edge of the door panel towards yourself and support the bottom edge with your legs.

The cable for the door lock switch is located closer to the top of the door panel.

Pull the white plastic collar out of the "C" shaped socket in the cracket.

Then lift the metal elbow out of its socket.

Swing out the cable and lift the metal ball out of its socket.

Set the plastic door panel aside in a safe place.

Push in the release tab on the white plastic electrical connector before sliding it straight out of its socket.

The speaker is held in place by three screws that can be removed with either a 10mm socket and a 1/4" drive ratchet or a Phillips head screwdriver.

The OEM front door speakers can be replaced with aftermarket car speakers in the following sizes: 6 1/2" (6.5") and 6 3/4" (6.75").

For the best possible sound from your new speakers, I recommend applying some Dynamat sound deadener to the metal door frame to help stop vibrations and rattles when you crank up the volume.

To replace the plastic door panel, hold it near the door frame and tilt away the top edge.

Lower the metal ball at the end of the door opener handle cable into the lower socket on the back side of the door panel.

Then re-insert the metal 90 degree elbow at the end of the door lock switch into its socket closer to the top of the door panel.

Lower the top of the plastic door panel on to the upper lip of the metal door frame.

Firmly tap in the pop rivet friction fasteners all long the bottom edge and both sides of the door panel.

Spin in the two black metal screws a few turns by hand in the clockwise direction near the center of the armrest.

Spin in the silver 10mm bolt behind the door opener handle a few turns in the clockwise direction.

Push the trim cover back into place over the two black metal screws near the center of the armrest.

Push the white plastic electrical connector for the switch panel back into its socket.

You should hear or feel the power plug "click" securely into place.

Insert the plastic hook on the front edge of the switch panel down into place first.

Then lower the rear of the switch panel and push on it to secure the retaining clips.

Sit inside the SUV, close the door and verify that the door lock rocker switch, door opener handle, speaker, power window switch and power door lock switch all still work properly.

Be sure to record the speaker upgrade, electrical switch replacement or power window motor replacement in your vehicle's service records.
