I would like to add the following information to this thread.

If you are looking for good low end (bass) response from your rear speakers
forget the factory location for these speakers. (NOTE: Bass in much of
today's music may entail continuous subwoofer frequencies for extended
periods of time.) If you know anything about loud speaker technology you
will be aware that a speakers bass output is directly related to the baffle
(box)it is mounted in. The DeLorean rear speakers float in a very shallow
area of the rear quarter area and are secured to the body via the rear
magnet. This mounting technique substantially reduces the potential bass
response of whatever speaker is mounted in this position because of a "no
baffle condition". Secondly replacement requires a substantial amount of
labor with a distinct possibility of cracking the trim panel the speakers
are mounted behind.

As suggested earlier there are several options. If your not overly concerned
about losing shelf space you could simply add integrated speaker boxes
available in a very wide range of sizes, styles, and price. Another
advantage of the speaker box is easy installation. If you need your parcel
shelf clear do what many DeLorean owners have done and install speaker in
the back wall of the parcel shelf.

If you want the advantage of great sound while maintaining use of your
parcel shelf check out this system designed specifically for the DeLorean
from one of the most trusted names in DeLorean upgrade products
http://www.deloreanparts.com/zilla_046.htm. While your visiting the site
check out the information on stereo receiver upgrades for your DeLorean. 

I am sure that Dom and other members on this list can lead Aaron P. and
anyone else looking for sound upgrades to options that they have personal
experience with.

OK I stand corrected.  It may be possible to find some but if you want
really 
high- end, high-power 6x9's, your choices are very limited.  Most 6x9's are 
greater than 3" deep, most 4x10's are 2.5" or less.
