So, anyone knows how to do this? Or, is it even feasable on the new ones?

I'd bet money they just snap in. Try unfolding a paper clip or two and slipping it through the holes in the grill, then pull gently.

I tried already... Almost broke the paper clip and I left a mark on the grill... Tried also to unscrew them to no use... I'm a bit scared of pulling to hard, I don't kno what gonna stay in?
I want to remove them because, I want better sound. They vibrate to much.

Well I just pulled mine off with a paperclip. I bent about 3/8 of an inch of one wire end to a 90 degree angle. Then I slipped that through one of the outmost holes in the grill and maneuvered the wire so that is was flush against the inside of the grill. Then I gently pulled until the grill came off. There was no damage at all to the grill plastic. It does just snap in as I suspected.

More info. I tried pulling the other one off and it's much harder. I would suggest trying different spots around the periphery of the grill. Another though might be to thread some string through several of the peripheral holes so you can pull on all of them at the same time.

does doing this look ok? I would guess if they snap in there would be holes for the "snaps" to snap to. If not then mine are coming off right now!

No holes. They sort of just press in.
