NO, DO NOT pry on the plastic grills.
They are held to the door panel by plastic pins that are part of
the grill and 'melted' into place. They break easily and will need
to be drilled and replaced with hardware to make a decent repair.
Invest in one of the fork type pry tools and carefully pry the
pushpins
from the metal door by grabbing around both sides of the pins.
This should avoid any damage to the fibreboard door panel.
The pins can be reused, even though they are easy to replace if
needed.

Sorry, I'm not up on what currently out there.
Infinity would not be a bad choice.
Pay attention to impedance, though.
