I put my 6X9's in the rear quarters in my Mk1 and it sounds great.  I 
stuffed a bunch of couch cushion foam behind the speakers to fill up some 
of the space and there is a small ( about 3x2) gap in the quarter panels 
where the speaker doesn't seal tight but it seems to help focus the sound 
up front.  You will need some good speakers in the doors though because the 
6X9's will really rock and drown out other speakers.
