thanks for all of these informative instructions Princess.

i have an 06 coupe and was wondering if the instructions on how to remove the rear deck is any different from 03-05 instructions given in this thread (i know i dont a high mount brake light). thanks!

I found it!!! :thmsup: There's mostly the same stuff, but at least this one also has the shelf without the 3rd brake light!!

thank you so much for the confirmation princess!

my screens wont pop back in due to the my infiniti speakers tweeter pop out and keep the screen from popping in. SUX so the always tattle because i just set them ontop

whoa whoa whoa whoa...you don't have to do all that to remove the speakers! there are clips that hold in the speaker grills! pop them out and it's 4 8mm bolts holding them in. unclip the harness and reverse order for the new speakers!

i did it with:
my coupe
various customer's sedans & coupes
6gen coupes & sedans
5th gen coupes & sedans (instead of clips, 3 small screws holding it on, but still no need to remove rear deck!)

u do have to do all that to install dynamat on rear deck lol. have to do it soon, airbags are hard to work around

I gotta dynamat my deck too..i did the whole trunk but the deck still rattles

I gotta dynamat my deck too..i did the whole trunk but the deck still rattles

im taking out my third brake light, that is what rattles for me, no need for it anyways with the brake light on my spoiler!

thank you Princess for providing instructions!
Unfortunately I've run into a problem. It seems that the side parts of the rear seat that don't fold down are stopping me from removing the rear deck completely. Could you provide instructions on how to remove the side parts of the rear seat that don't fold down?

here you go.....

i would like to revive this thread. While you are correct about this about doing JUST a speaker replacement, the only way to install dynamat around the speaker properly is to remove everything. I did a ghetto install of just speaker replacement in the rear and it's okay, but now that it's spring im going to be removing everything pretty soon. correct me if i'm wrong though!

yeah ill have to finish my passenger door and rear deck so will have to remove all that stuff

I'd really like to install Dynamat on my rear deck I've done my doors but alot of bass comes from those rear 6x9's and rattles, does anyone know a thread or instructions on removing the rear deck in 07 Accord VP(sedan)? Thanks!

i have an 07 coupe, stuck on step E. this is tucked underneath the rear quarterpanels and it seems like the only way to remove the rear deck is to take off the quarterpanels as well. can someone describe in more detail how to remove the rear corner edges?

thank you Princess for providing instructions!

I was just stuck on this for about 30-60 minutes. The key to removing these side cushions is.......

1) Remove the bolt that holds them to the floorboard
2) Pull up from the bottom
3) This is key: give a palm strike to the top/front of the cushion and it should provide the necessary shock to get it to slide up and out of the retaining slots.

These held me back for a long time because I was afraid I was going to break something. :paranoid:

I found the trick because when I applied the upwards pressure while pushing the top of the cushion towards the base of the rear window, I saw the cushion move up another inch or so. So, I applied pulled up on it again and gave it a good whallup and it popped right out. :thmsup:

Does anyone know if the 09 coupe is the same in removing back panel or if theres a easier way to remove the stock Woofer completely?
