I would avoid putting them in the doors, not only because OE vinyl panels are 
impossible to find in good condition, but also because the doors get LOTs of 
water in them in the rain. Most aftermarket door speakers get ruined by water 
within a year or so.

Behind the rear seat ash trays might be okay, but you'll have to check to see 
if there is enough depth available there.

The rear seat kick panels would be good except for the fact that there is that 
darn battery in the way on one side....     ;-)
