Speaker Installation, help!

Greetings, new to the Forum. I have a question, total n00b when it comes to a lot of this stuff. I have a 99 ford ranger ex cab, and I'm wanting to install some 6x9's in the back. But the factory speakers are an odd size. Any idea on how I can install these, and it not look crappy? Any help would be appreciated, maybe some helpful tips, or references (with pics, pics are good). Thanks a lot!

Look in the "How To" section, there is a write up there I believe.
You have to cut the door tho.
If you look on Cruchfeild.com, they have a couple of factory size aftermarket speakers

I cut my fronts for 6x9s. Word of advice, if your not amping them then its not worth it.

I'm using Polk 5X7s and they fit perfectly in the stock rear locations.
