    • Gently pry the front mesh cover off of the SoundDock using a metal spudger.

I am unsure of what to do in step #3…

Is the purpose to remove the speaker completely and place a brand new one? (Making sure not to pull the old speaker too far out as to not break any wire… ) ???

Edited comment:

I am not sure what they mean by "pins".

Hi I just accidently pushed in that dome part in the middle a little and now it distorts. I tried using a vacuum but it didnt work. Please help!!!!!!!!

Try to see if there’s any way you can reduce the nozzle size of the vacuum cleaner you’re using - this should increase the flow rate, and possibly the amount of force applied over such a small area.

Alternatively, you can use a very very fine needle, bend the end of it, and use it to “hook” the cone. This method is really a last resort, as you want to avoid making even the smallest of holes.

Absolute last resort is replacing the speaker, which if you can find a replacement, should be pretty easy.
