Front & Rear Interior Door Panel Removal and Speaker Upgrade on a Mercedes-Benz G500 (W463 G-Class)
Dear viewer,
In this video I am showing you how to remove both the front and rear interior door panels, as well as how to remove and replace blown out speakers. As these vehicles age, the paper-cone speakers tend to disintegrate, which causes door rattles and audio distortion when playing music.
If you liked the video, please consider giving it a thumbs up and subscribe to the channel for more content like this! As always if you have any questions, feel free to post them in the comment section below. I do my best to answer to all comments.
Regards,

Instantly my favorite Auto youtube channel. Thanks a lot for the quality content on going through repairing the non-crucial average stuff that breaks on all G's that nobody documents.
Thanks, it is always much appreciated hearing that people are happy with the content I am creating!
Just a tip to add, if you're removing the door panels and you have the OEM Door Lock pin, you would need to twist it off the rod it's screwed on first but it's very important secure the rod with tape or have someone hold it or something or else it'll fall into the dark abyss of the door panel and you gotta fish it out later which can be very annoying. :)
Yeah, makes sense, thanks for the tip :)
You may buy a speaker refoam repair kit to fix it. More easy.
Never though of that. I will keep it in mind for future reference.
Great explanation. I'll have to take the rear door panel off to repair the inside door handle.
Thanks! I am happy to hear the video was helpful for you.
I really like your G-Wagon. A lot of the ones I see in America have a bunch of chrome pieces on the exterior that don’t look right to me. I really like your no chrome blacked out look. I just subscribed and look forward to watching your progress here. Good luck!
Thanks mate! I also prefer it completely blacked out.
Thanks for a great explanation. Any chance you know how to remove the passenger Car Instrument Speaker I’m having a hard time trying to figure out how to get access to the speaker. Thank you in advance.
Do you mean the speaker in the dashboard?
Do you know if there is a subwoofer anywhere on these 2002 G500
Some have, others don't. My particular G500 doesn't have it. If yours does, it will be under the rear seat on the drivers side. Mine only has a cubby there where some tools are stored.
@@EndlessMotorWorksThanks
What model year is it and what tires do you have on it?
It is a 2002 model year, Japanese import. Tires are 285/55R18 Michelin Latitude Sport. However in this particular video it has winter tires which are Nokian WR SUV 4 in size 265/60R18
Was it worth the purchase , drive well ?
Yeah, the G500 drives good enough. It seems like it was purpose built for the bad Eastern Europe roads. :D The only thing that bugs me is that it is not fast by any stretch of the imagination, despite its decent pick up and go power. I might be looking into adding the supercharger from the M113K engine later on. Those things, however, are quite rare on the used market, as everyone wants to sell the entire engine, not just to part it out.
@@EndlessMotorWorks that’s I’m looking to get an older one wondering if I’d be happy with it, ill look into the supercharger
@@CHINIS06 There really aren't any major changes in the w463 2002 to 2012. They are pretty much the same car, which the only difference being the interior.
use plastic tools when removing trim. please for the love of god
Thanks for the suggestion. I would have used them if it made sense. For removing door panels it really doesn't for me. These panels specifically where so loose, because of the broken clips that just pulling on it with my fingers would have done the job.
