Answer 1

is there enough room for you to get  a cut off tool in there, make the hole bigger & install the speaker?

Answer 2

If you have 2 ... 6 1/2 spaces on the rear deck

Get the sawzall or jigsaw and get ready to cut...

Make cardboard outlines of the 6 X 9 speaker

Cut the center of the cardboard out to make your pattern

Cut the center out of the each pattern

tape to the metal mark the metal that needs cut out of the center...

Cut as needed,,,,, Use drill to drill out s***w holes mount speakers so you can match the grilles up to the speakers

Answer 3

no easy way but to cut the rear metal to the shape of a 6x9 opening.

This can be done with several tools that require air or electric  Air Saw, Pac Man punch metal cutter or muscle powered tin snip metal sheers.

Make sure before you cut anything, will speaker mount from bottom facing up? or drop from top down? will either method clear any metal bars that hold the trunk lid open?

if mounting from the bottom , then use the 6x9 grill on top of rear deck and mount just the 6x9 covers.  this way it will hide any deformed shap of your cut.
