Disconnect the 4" speakers alltogether and put 6" speakers in the doors.
Its not worth it doing the in dash speakers, they're small, the grilles are hard to get out because of the windscreen, the screws are hard to undo because of the windscreen, and the replacement speaker will probably be too deep and need part of the plastic underneath cut out. Also, they mount with only 2 tabs, so if you do change them, get ones that you can cut the tabs off.

Are there any self serve wreckers there? I think the KS veradas had speaker pods on the front doors.

lol i completely agree with timi on the disconnection. I replaced the 4in dash speakers on mine, and it was a royal pain in the arse, i could give u a tutorial if u want but the best option is just ripping them out, covering the hole and putting a pair of 2 ways in the doors. what i have in my magna is a pair of 6x9s on the parcel shelf, clarion 6in 2 ways in the front and back doors, kenwood 4in 2ways in the dash and a kenwood 12in sub in the boot.

By disconnect, I meant just behind the head unit, since you need to run new speaker wires to the doors anyway if thats where the speakers are going.
