Need some advice on how to remove crossover. It seems like it is stapled and maybe glued (pic below). Should I just carefully pry them out ? Also, I destroyed the gasket around driver when reforming (basically crumbled when taking off) Not sure where to find them or make them. Thanks in advance

In my thread referenced above, I was completely unable to get that board out in one piece. I suppose if a guy had a stout putty knife and a lot of patience, he could probably work it loose. Hell, ya' might even get lucky and have one that wasn't glued in all that well at all.

Kind of figured. Thanks. I may try and see how bad I can make it. Lol. Thanks for the reply
 
There seems to be some glue glue so you could try a hairdryer to soften it up and then maybe use something like a butter knife or flat blade to lift it.
