They are probably 5x7s. I am not a hundred percent sure but that was a common size.

The only info I could find shows a 5 1/4" in the front and a 5" x 7" in the rear.

Yes, they are 5x7s in the rear, 5 1/4s in the front. Keep in mind that there are typically no differences between 5x7s and 6x8s!

Just something to add I have 6 1/2s in the front doors on mine. I put them in there last week. 2 screws will line up and go in with no modification. they sound much better than the 5 1/4s I took out. also the vent looking plate fit back on and everything looks good.

4.5" speakers as subs?!?! They won't be able to move enough air! The 6x9s will produce better bass than those little speakers!

thats what the previous owner did, surprisingly but i'm not looking for a whole lot of bass yet. i'm in a crazy testing phase and i'm looking to wreck my old 4.5 speakers anyway, since a got a brand new set in a trade. after i get those destroyed i have 2 12in subs to throw in with a custom box.
