I replaced my speakers recently and I have a couple tips. All my speakers (both front and rear) had the foam speaker surrounds so deteriorated that it was actually crumbled away and missing. I suspect that any original speakers still in these cars are likely to be in a similar condition and that any new speaker installed will be a substantial improvement. In selecting your speakers there are a couple considerations you should make in addition to the sound. The front speakers must not have any protrusion in the speaker (like a tweeter coaxially mounted by raised above the mounting flange). The front speakers mount flush with the underside of the dash, so make sure you get front speakers that will work adequately for that application. Mounting the front speakers is notoriously fun -- you'll find several messages providing tips on this in the archives. For the rear speakers it is important to select new speakers that have the same/similar magnet size as the original spekaers. The rear mounting bracket clamps around the magnet of the rear speaker, and the original speakers actually have a fairly reasonably sized magnet structure. If you get rear speakers with a magnet size much different than the original you'll have to rig up some shims or something in order to mount them. Good luck.
