There are four clips about an inch in from the corners front and back.
Using a VERY thin prying screw driver, either pop up from the center
and work to a side or pick a corner and pry up. May be a good thing to
use the steel part to glue the wood onto

The idea of making a wooden one appeals to me but I would need to get
this
one off first to use as a sort of a pattern.

As for the speaker cover, I changed to the wood trim dash and it was
missing a cover. I found one at PnP, but it is pretty weather worn
and
needs to have the cover heated and re-attached. Anybody have a good
idea how to make that happen? Thought a slow oven may do, but
probably
would just melt it all
That's a tough one. The Frankenheap's grille is hard black plastic,
and is just fine. But the usual one I see, and the one that is
in the Ebola Fishtank, is that glued-on vinyl/foam over metal thing.
I never have seen a good one of those.
One other option would be to make a nice wooden one. That would
be somewhat labor-intensive.
Temperature control on your oven would be critical.
