Speaker replacement question

I have a 2004 TL and the driver door speaker is buzzing, so I'm assuming that it needs to be replaced. My question has to do with the model of speaker I need to order. When I check websites for Acura parts, the part number that I get for the door speaker is 39120-SEP-01. However when I ordered the car I got the navigation system with the upgraded audio package. So, I'm wondering if the front door speaker model would have been changed. I'd appreciate any input on the correct replacement speaker to get.

Also, I've been looking at videos on how to remove the door panel in order to get to the speaker. I've seen several suggestions to get a set of tools to help remove the panel as well as suggestions to get replacement plastic fasteners. I'd appreciate input on these suggestions as well.

Thanks.

A set of these helps with door panels.

I just use a #2 Philips and a small flat head (for relasing the cover behind the door release lever).

Ive taken them off and put back on dozens of times and never needed to replace anything. Only hard parts sometimes is getting the bumper bolt on the rear of the door (i probably cross threaded through the plastic the last time i put it back on) and getting one of those connectors off.. You just push the tab but can be difficult/awkward to get your finger in the right spot.

Yeah, only upgrade I can think of is that noise canceling feature. Other than that everything audio related should be the same.
