How to remove convert rear speaker grilles?

I want to pull the cloth covered grilles on rear side panels so I can clean and/or recover them - anyone have tips for removing them without breaking them or damaging the upholstery?
THANKS

You have to remove the panels they are attached to. 4 bolts from backside.

You mean the rear sail panels? These:

It's one screw at the top, then slide them up.

Those are for T tops and hardtops. Convertibles are rectangular.

I see, does anyone know what the guy with the question has? I looked over his profile and all, but nothing is listed...

Trust me, I have the same car and have done it. Remove the whole panel and look from the back.
