Default So What Fits In A C5

I have searched for these specs and have not come up with the answers. I have a 2000 FRC and I assume the sizes will be the same as a coupe. I want to replace the head unit and both front and rear speakers. I have a set of 6.5" Focal components for the fronts. I will be purchasing the head unit, rears and an amp. Has anyone tried putting a pair of mid bass speakers into the rear openings? Thanks for the help!!

Kevin

Mid bass is pretty directional... though those speakers are pretty close. Really, if those are Polgylass or better, I'd forget about rear speakers entirely.

Thanks and I would normally agree entirely but I don't want to spend the bucks on a sub, enclosure another amp and the extra install $$ right now. I will dynamat the front doors and the Focals put out some respectable bass just wanting to add to it from the rear. Looking for the best option in lieu of a sub.
