Okay, Yes i'm with Valo666, this should be off topic.

Next, you wanna take the door apart on a saturn, dont expect a bunch of celica owners to have pics. No offense, but common now...

As for taking the door apart, All doors work the same. There is a panel that you need to take off first. This sounds like the only step you want to take. Look for screws that seem to hold the panel on. Take those off. After they are all off, the panel should come off, if it dont, look for more. If you cant find any more, look for plastic screw covers, remove those and the screws. If it still dont come off and it's holding on the edges, than Get a flat head screw driver and a wash-rag, put the rag over the flathead, then wedge it between the panel and the door frame and apply pressure till the Clip'n Clips pop out.

Make sure you dont rip any wires, remove harness's at the harness joints. (where 2 harness' meet) dont puncture any speakers.

Good luck, but we cant give you pics. You pretty much gotta figure it out on your own. Dont worry, your not the first pioneer. We were all pioneers at one time!

the only reason i posted on the celica board was the outstanding tips i got from the members a few months ago when i was installing new door speakers in my 6gen. I figured someone may have worked at a car audio shop and were familiar with taking doors apart*

also, what are some good/ great products to shampoo the interiors with? i honestly dont want to make a auto detailer go through that mess, i couldnt sleep at night after doing that to a fellow human*

Thanks D-Man, i found 2 press n release clips the other day; like the celicas door/ but there are no visible screws to get at... I'll try that pad n pry thing you mentioned =)

and btw, Saturn help lines are extremely rude/ the dealership would charge $90+ to remove the door panel and had no advice for a self removal*
