Speaker fitment..

Iv'e searched but I haven't come across any definite results. I drive an 87 SE and I'm trying to find out what size speakers I need to buy in the rear. Can I fit some decent-sized components back there? I'm looking for good quality without subs.. any reccomendations?

I'm looking at these rockfords.. what do you think?

It looks like you should be able to put 6 1/2" speakers in the rear shock towers. I'm pretty sure I've seen other members' cars with those speakers in the back. You'll need to buy or make a mounting plate. You'll also want to do a re-wire, since the stock speaker wire is kinda pathetic...
