Owners of other Mitsubishi vehicles such as the Lancer, Outlander, Galant, Montero, Eclipse, 3000GT, Endeavor, Raider, Diamante, Attrage, Carisma, Colt, Grandis, Magna, Pajero, Space Star and the revised 2017 Mirage may also find these DIY instructions to be helpful.

The tools needed to take off the door panels include a Phillips head screwdriver and a plastic automotive panel pry bar tool.

No tools are needed to remove the OEM door speakers.

Remove the screw located behind the door opener handle by turning it counterclockwise with a Phillips head screwdriver.

Set the screw aside in a safe place.

Then remove the Phillips head screw at the bottom of the door pull handle well in the center of the arm rest by turning it counterclockwise.

Move to the top inner corner of the door panel.

Use a plastic automotive panel pry bar tool to gently pry up the bottom edge of the sail panel.

Do not pry at the sides or top of the sail panel. There is a slot on the back of the sail panel attached to a plastic pop rivet button head.

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

Set the sail panel aside in a safe place.

Move to the outer edge of the door panel and locate the small screw.

At this point, you should have removed three screws.

Try to avoid using excessive force. Just be patient and gentle to avoid breaking the plastic switch panel.

Be sure to re-insert the pry bar tool in several locations to loosen all of the plastic retaining clips.

Turn over the armrest to access the switch panel electrical connectors.

Set the two armrest screws aside with the other three screws. You should have removed a total of 5 Phillips head screws.

Firmly pull out the bottom edge of the door panel to release the plastic pop rivet friction fasteners.

Continue pulling out the pop rivets all along the bottom edge and both sides of the door panel.

Lift the door panel up and off the top lip of the metal door frame.

To disconnect the door opener handle and door lock rocker switch cables, first pull the plastic collar out of the "C" shaped brackets and then lift the metal cylinder out of their sockets.

Set the plastic door panel aside in a safe place.

Press in the release tab on the white plastic speaker power plug before pulling it straight out of the socket.

Rotate the OEM speaker 1/4 turn counterclockwise before pulling it out of the metal door frame.

To help reduce road noise and make your new speakers sound their best, apply some Dynamat Sound Deadener to the metal door frame. It will stop any vibrations or rattles when you crank up the volume.

To replace the door panel, hold it near the door frame and tilt the top edge towards yourself.

Lower the metal cylinder at the end of the door lock switch cable (yellow plastic collar) in to the top socket.

Snap the yellow plastic collar in to the bracket.

Pull the two switch panel wire looms out of the opening in the door panel.

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

Firmly tap in the pop rivets all along the bottom edge and both sides of the door panel.

Replace the two screws located under the armrest by turning them clockwise with the Phillips head screwdriver.

Replace the Phillips head screw behind the door opener handle by turning it clockwise.

Line up the retaining clips on the underside of the switch panel with their slots on the door panel.

Lower the switch panel in to place and push it down to secure the retaining clips.

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