I think the price may put you off, to replace a door card on MY12 SDV6 is £830.00 inc VAT discounted price at Duckworth LR Parts. Big Cry You have to supply the VIN number and they are made to order. Whistle
All this just for a damaged speaker grille (small hole) which can't be purchased separately only the whole door card! Embarassed John

Hi
I recently done just this you just have to swap the original wiring onto seat frame. Takes a little while and only connection you need to make is the heated seats. Just cut original wire and connect with a double end connector and it's done .
I just put some 2013 new leather on mine also, that's a pain but worth it.

Hi
I managed to get a full second hand set of eBay £200 and looks so much better now. Slight variance on window switches which leaves a little gap but got some Matt chrome surrounds from china which stuck on and look pretty much original fitment. Your right about new prices so expensive like most things seem to be Big Cry

Well done managing to get a whole set, and not a bad price, did your speakers match and fit, as some have upgraded sound system fitted with a different grille layout? John

Hi
They will fit alright.
Take care and disconnect the battery at least half hour before you start.
Rear section in two parts feed through from the rear to save door cards getting scratched.
Also recommend getting someone to help you get fronts out, they are a pig as heavy. Easiest way is lift as far forward then straight out sideways.If you have an amp under driver seat you'll be glad of help as likely to get stuck.
You'll also need to take off original seat belt tensioners and transfer over.
Regards
David

Hi
Yes speakers were ok, only difficulty is wiring looms different on newer ones so the locking buttons on driver door become only decorative , still ok though as retain original on dash.
