Static Noise from Left Front speaker

I have a 97 expedition and I have a static noise coming from the Left Front door speaker. It goes away when I shut the radio off. I just went to try to take to door panels off and there are no screws. I don't want to break anything on the door, so is there a trick to take the door panels off so that I can replace the speaker?
