Is there an easy and quick way to disconnect the rear speakers in a 88 RC? Has factory radio/casette still. Have a bad speaker in the rear that making an awful sound and doing full balance front helps, but is still slightly noticeable. Have some replacement Polk speakers but won't be able to do the swap for a little bit.
Also, any insight on how to properly remove the interior trim on a regular cab to do that swap? Hopefully with no/minimal damage.
Sorry I had not noticed this question before. You may have solved this by now. The answer to your question is "it depends" If you have the Silverado high trim option it is a pain in the butt to remove the trim to get at the speaker. You have to start down around the seat belt anchor and remove a load of screws to pull the strip out and then unbolt the speaker.
If you have one of the less expensive trim packages it is easier, just gently pry off the speaker cover R/R speaker and replace the cover. Since you ask the question you probably have the wide trim strip with the speaker cover built into it.
An elegant way to deal with it would be to find the proper speaker pair in the radio harness and clip the lead for that speaker. To do that you would need the color code for the various speaker lines. I personally would not do that unless I was swapping out the radio. Good luck ! Once you post which trim package you have (a picture would not hurt) @sewlow might be the one to ask about getting that trim loose.
