I just replaced my rear speakers 2 days ago and it was soooo easy. first of just remove the grocery bag hooks by taking a small screwdiver and disengaging the small tab on the BOTTOM of the hook, the top tab is fake!!! then turn it 90 degrees and it pops out. Then put your rear seats in the reclined position, grad ahold of your rear pannels and pull. thats it. Nothing to break, dont worry. I start with the side nearest the doors and work my way rearward. The rear speakers are bolted down with 3 10mm bolts. I replaced them with 6.5" Kenwoods and just screwed them in place with sheetmetal screws. Some people say to make a mdf bracket to mount the speakers to but I think this is totally unnecessary, at least for my 6.5" speakers. The stock speakers are 5.5" and if you are going to replace them with 5.25" speakers (I am not sure why you would) but it would then be necessary to make a mounting bracket.

I hope this helps!

Since you want to do both the front and the back, follow the pictures in the link in my sig ;)

and it's 6.5/6.3...you can fit 6.5's in both w/ baffles.
