Default Replacement door speakers for C6

Curious if there are any reasonable priced speakers that are a direct fit into our doors? I have an aftermarket (Eclipse) DVD/Nav in place of the Bose. It has been a year and the speakers have a cracking sound in them at higher volume.

I am not looking for anything fancy just a good but fairly cheap replacement. I am taking the doors off this week or next week anyhow and curious what everyone recommends...

I assume since that is only 3.5inches it is for the top speaker. What about the large 6.5 in our doors? Just looking for a direct replacement that is a little better than my bose.
