I'm hoping that I can only remove the screws from the right  side to give 
myself enough space to tear up the speaker.   I  think an inch or so 
would do.  How flexible is  it?



It depends on how old it is, and how long it's been in place. I only say  
that, because the older they get, the more brittle the vinyl seems to get. Do 
 like Jim suggests, as you might need all the access you can get.
Hopefully the PO didn't glue it down, as that would really suck.
