Default C6 Convertible Speaker Size Information

I've looked and looked and can't seem to find the size of my rear spearkers on my 05 convertible. Plenty on info on the coupe but the convertible is lacking. The front size is 3.5 and I'm assuming the rear is the same as the coupe, 5.25?

From what I have read here the rears are mainly used as fillers. Being so I'm still going to change out the rear speakers. What are your thoughts with the Polk db351 and the Boston Acoustics S35 for the front and rear set? Also the rear, any PN for both Polk and Boston Acoustics in 5.25?

I'm keeping everything stock at this time. So just the speaker change.

Thanks.

the db351 is a great upgrade for upfront.
