I recently did mine. If you remove the glove box door which is just 4 screws makes getting to p/s speaker a breeze. You can just pop the covers off speakers but they are brittle. Even going from the bottom and pushing clips out I still had to epoxy 3/6 clips back on. d/s speaker is a pain if you want to get from the bottom. I had cluster and inner dash out when I did mine bc I was re-wiring everything. I also did the big 3 upgrade when I put my stereo together. I used a set of kenwood KFC-835C's, only because they are one of or the only speakers without tweeters to hit grills. They cleared fine and sound good, but they are nothing special but and upgrade from the stockers. As for the wires I forget whether I used 6 or 4 gauge for charging wire and put a circuit breaker in line. I left the factory starter wires and checked to see drop in amps @ the fuse panel and found there was barely any drop. Grounds from engine to body and engine to frame are 1/0. main ground is still stock and I even put a ground from radiator to frame in an effort to prevent electrolysis. Amps are both connected directly to battery through proper fuses and wires.
