I'm working on trying to run new speaker wire for my setup. I'm having trouble trying to remove the gray plastic thing that is on the body. Any tips/suggestions?

I got this tip from "Division" but I can't pull down on the gray hinged tab. I removed the rubber grommet on the door side but having trouble with this part. When I push the gray hinged tab down it doesn't move, how do I take this off?

The door connectors are easily removed (pull down the gray hinged tab, and close the door slightly to pop the connector off). On the Base model (sans Bose), the connector on the door side has an opening to run the speaker wire. The connector on the body side will need to be trimmed out, to allow the wires to pass through. It takes about 30 seconds with an exacto knife to make this happen. Much better than using the stock wires.
